The complete mitochondrial genome of the leafhopper Evacanthus acuminatus (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Evacanthinae) by Zhouwei Yuan, Xiao Yang, Can Li, Yuehua Song

“…ATT, ATG, ATA, TTG were initiation codons and TAA, TAG, T were termination codons. Phylogenetic tree based on concatenated amino acid sequences of 13 PCGs shows that E. acuminatu and Idiocerinae clade form sister groups, and all species of different subfamilies congregate with each other, which is consistent with the traditional taxonomy.…”
