Abstract

We have determined mitochondrial genome of A. gossypii isolated from Plantago asiatica in Korea. The circular mitogenome of A. gossypii is 16,045 bp including 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNAs, and a single control region of 798 bp. Its AT ratio is 83.8%. In comparison this mitogenome to Chinese and Korean A. gossypii mitogenomes, 66 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 176 insertions and deletions (INDELs) and 11 SNPs and 173 INDELs are identified, respectively, presenting similar level to those of Nilaparvata lugens, Laodelphax striatellus, and Spodoptera frugiperda and lower than that of Chilo suppresallis.
