Abstract
In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequence of Aleuroglyphus ovatus (Acarinae: Aleuroglyphus) was determined by long PCR and primer walking methods. The complete mitochondrial genome is 14,305 bp in length and contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes as well as a displacement loop (D-loop). The overall base composition of the genome is A (23.61%), T (44.60%), C (13.03%) and G (18.76%) respectively. Stop codon was missed for the CYTB gene and the gene overlaps were suggested between ten pairs of the contiguous genes in A. ovatus. The mitogenome would contribute to resolving phylogenetic position and interrelationships of Aleuroglyphus.
