Abstract

In this study, we elucidated the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Plautia crossota. The circular mitogenome is 16,809 bp long, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and a non-coding control region. The overall base composition is as follows: A, 41.6%; T, 32.75%; C, 14.84%; G, 10.81%; a slight A + T bias of 74.35%. Phylogenetic analysis of 20 species of Pentatomoidea revealed that Plautia crossota was closer to Nezara viridula.
