Mitochondrial DNA. 2013 Feb;24(1):37-9. doi: 10.3109/19401736.2012.716054. Epub 2012 Sep 14.
The complete mitochondrial genome of the codling moth Cydia pomonella (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) was determined. The genome is 15,253 bp long with 37 typical animal mitochondrial genes and an A+T-rich region. All genes are arranged in their conserved positions compared with the pupative ancestral arrangement of insects except for trnM, which was translocated to the upstream of the transfer RNA cluster trnI-trnQ as in all previously reported lepidopteran mitochondiral genomes. Seven portein-coding genes use ATG start codon and five use ATT. However, the cox1 gene uses the CGA start codon as it is found in all previous reported mitochondrial genomes of Lepidoptera. Nine protein-coding genes stop with termination codon TAA. Four protein-coding genes use incomplete stop codons TA or T. The A+T region is located between rrnS and trnM with a length of 331 bp.
测定了苹果蠹蛾（鳞翅目：卷蛾科）的完整线粒体基因组。该基因组长度为15253 bp，包含37个典型的动物线粒体基因和一个富含A+T的区域。与昆虫假定的祖先排列相比，所有基因都排列在其保守位置，除了trnM，它像所有先前报道的鳞翅目线粒体基因组一样，转移到了转移RNA簇trnI-trnQ的上游。7个蛋白质编码基因使用ATG起始密码子，5个使用ATT。然而，cox1基因使用CGA起始密码子，这与之前所有报道的鳞翅目线粒体基因组一致。9个蛋白质编码基因以终止密码子TAA结束。4个蛋白质编码基因使用不完整的终止密码子TA或T。A+T区域位于rrnS和trnM之间，长度为331 bp。
