The complete mitogenome of Spathosternum prasiniferum sinense was sequenced and annotated in this work. It is 15,591 bp in size and contains 37 typical animal mitochondrial genes, meanwhile, A + T content is high as 74.1%. All protein-coding genes (PCGs) use standard ATN initiation codons. Twelve PCGs utilize complete termination codons TAG or TAA, except for DN5 gene uses an incomplete stop codon TA. tRNA genes were predicted with a characteristic cloverleaf secondary structure except trnS(AGN). The sizes of the lrRNA and srRNA genes are 1315 and 788 bp, respectively. The AT content of the A + T-rich region is 86.5%.
本研究对中华剑角蝗的完整线粒体基因组进行了测序和注释。其大小为15591bp，包含37个典型的动物线粒体基因，同时，A+T含量高达74.1%。所有蛋白质编码基因（PCGs）均使用标准的ATN起始密码子。除DN5基因使用不完全终止密码子TA外，12个PCGs使用完整的终止密码子TAG或TAA。除trnS(AGN)外，tRNA基因通过特征性的三叶草二级结构进行预测。大核糖体RNA（lrRNA）和小核糖体RNA（srRNA）基因的大小分别为1315bp和788bp。A+T富集区的AT含量为86.5%。
