The complete mitochondrial genome of Bothrogonia qiongana (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) with phylogenetic analyses

Mitochondrial DNA B Resour. 2020 Jul 14;5(3):2750-2751. doi: 10.1080/23802359.2020.1788437.

Abstract

The species of Bothrogonia qiongana was reported by Yang and Li in 1980. The mitogenome is 15,788 bp in length, including 37 genes and a control region, with an overall A + T content of 76.9%. Most of the PCGs start with ATN (ATA, ATC, ATT, ATG), but ND5 starts with TTG. All PCGs used TAA or TAG as stop codon except COX2 which is using incomplete single T--. The phylogenetic tree was reconstructed based on B. qiongana and 24 reference species, which is consistent with traditional taxonomy.

Keywords: Bothrogonia qiongana; Cicadellidae; Mitochondrial genome; phylogenetic analyses.
