The complete mitochondrial genome ofAphis gossypiiGlover, 1877 (Hemiptera: Aphididae) isolated fromPlantago asiaticain Korea

Abstract

We have determined mitochondrial genome ofA. gossypiiisolated fromPlantago asiaticain Korea. The circular mitogenome ofA. gossypiiis 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 KoreanA. gossypiimitogenomes, 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 ofNilaparvata lugens,Laodelphax striatellus, andSpodoptera frugiperdaand lower than that ofChilo suppresallis.
