The complete mitochondrial genome of Pachylophus rufescens (de Meijere, 1904) (Diptera:Chloropidae)

Pachylophus belongs to the subfamily Chloropinae, the second most diverse subfamily of Chloropidae. However, there have been few complete mitochondrial genomes of Chloropinae reported in the public database. Consequently, we sequenced and annotated the complete mitochondrial genome of Pachylophus ru...

Description
Summary:Pachylophus belongs to the subfamily Chloropinae, the second most diverse subfamily of Chloropidae. However, there have been few complete mitochondrial genomes of Chloropinae reported in the public database. Consequently, we sequenced and annotated the complete mitochondrial genome of Pachylophus rufescens (de Meijere, 1904). The whole mitochondrial genome is 17, 926 bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNAs (tRNAs) and two ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs). The mitochondrial genome exhibits high A + T bias, accounting for 79.7% of its entirety. All PCGs start with ATN codon and end with TAN or incomplete stop codon TA or single T. The Maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree revealed a close relationship between Pachylophus and Cetema. This study contributes to the expansion of the mitochondrial genome library of Chloropinae, providing a valuable resource for gaining insights into the evolutionary history of Chloropidae.
