We analyzed the complete mitochondrial genome of the invasive Asian hornet from Kyushu Island, Japan. The mitochondrial genome of was identified as a circular molecule of 16,388 bp. We predicted that the genome contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, and 2 rRNA genes, along with one A + T-rich control region. The average AT content is 81.68%. Molecular phylogenetic analysis using the 13 mitochondrial PCGs from 11 closely related taxa of Vespidae indicated that the invading the Japanese Islands of Kyushu and Tsushima have a common origin.
我们分析了来自日本九州岛的入侵性亚洲大黄蜂的完整线粒体基因组。其线粒体基因组被鉴定为一个16388 bp的环状分子。我们预测该基因组包含13个蛋白质编码基因(PCGs)、22个tRNA基因和2个rRNA基因,以及一个富含A+T的控制区。平均AT含量为81.68%。使用来自胡蜂科11个密切相关分类群的13个线粒体PCGs进行的分子系统发育分析表明,入侵日本九州岛和对马岛的亚洲大黄蜂有共同的起源。
