The complete mitochondrial genome of the shining leaf chafer Mimela junii (Duftschmidt, 1805) (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae)

The complete mitochondrial genome of the shining leaf chafer was sequenced and is herein described. The mitogenome consists of a circular molecule of 16,805 bp, with an overall AT content of 75.7%. It encodes for 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNA genes...

Description
Summary:The complete mitochondrial genome of the shining leaf chafer was sequenced and is herein described. The mitogenome consists of a circular molecule of 16,805 bp, with an overall AT content of 75.7%. It encodes for 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs) and contains a non-coding Control Region (CR) characterized by the presence of tandem repeats. The gene order corresponds to the ancestral Pancrustacea model and mitogenome characteristics are congruous with those of hexapods. In the phylogenetic analysis, is nested within a paraphyletic with high support, and is herein associated with with medium/low support.
