Mitochondrial DNA B Resour. 2017 Nov 27;2(2):887-888. doi: 10.1080/23802359.2017.1407695.
The mitochondrial DNA of () was characterized and its phylogenetic position was reconstructed in Scarabaeoidea. This mitogenome presented 14,802 bp-long, richness in AT of 77.4% and 37 genes, including 13 protein-coding, 22 transfer RNAs, and two ribosomal RNAs. In addition, it was observed intergenic spacers and reading frame overlaps. The phylogenetic trees reconstructed from protein sequences provided best resolution, indicating Scarabaeinae and Aphodiinae as a sister groups, as previously reported in other molecular phylogenies.
对()的线粒体DNA进行了特征分析,并在金龟总科中重建了其系统发育位置。该线粒体基因组长度为14,802 bp,AT含量丰富,为77.4%,包含37个基因,其中包括13个蛋白质编码基因、22个转运RNA和两个核糖体RNA。此外,还观察到基因间隔区和读码框重叠。从蛋白质序列重建的系统发育树提供了最佳分辨率,表明蜣螂亚科和隐翅虫亚科为姐妹群,正如之前在其他分子系统发育研究中所报道的那样。
