The complete mitochondrial genome of burying beetle Hope, 1831 was reported in this study. It was 17,299 bps in length and included 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and a 2693 bp A + T-rich control region. Phylogenetic analysis using 13 PCGs from 38 Staphyliniform beetle species revealed that was clustered in Silphidae, which together with Staphylinidae formed one monophyletic clade within Staphylinoidea.
本研究报道了埋葬虫(Hope,1831)的完整线粒体基因组。其长度为17,299个碱基对,包括13个蛋白质编码基因(PCGs)、22个tRNA基因、2个rRNA基因以及一个2693 bp的富含A+T的控制区。利用38种隐翅虫科甲虫物种的13个PCGs进行的系统发育分析表明,该物种聚类在埋葬虫科中,埋葬虫科与隐翅虫科在隐翅虫总科内形成一个单系类群。
