Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of the praying mantis Rhombodera longa (Mantodea: Mantidae) including a phylogenetic analysis
The complete mitochondrial genome of Rhombodera longa Yang, 1997 was sequenced in this study (GenBank accession no. MT110155). This molecule is circular in shape with 15,886 bp length, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and a non-co...

| Summary: | The complete mitochondrial genome of Rhombodera longa Yang, 1997 was sequenced in this study (GenBank accession no. MT110155). This molecule is circular in shape with 15,886 bp length, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and a non-coding control region. The AT content of the whole genome is 76.1% and the length of the control region is 636 bp with 78.2% AT content. This gene arrangement is consistent with the mitochondrial genomes of other praying mantises. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that R. longa clustered into a clade with Hierodula membranacea and found the genera Hierodula and Rhombodera are not monophyletic. |
