Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of Anoplophora glabripennis has been investigated and analyzed. The genome is a circular molecule of 15,774 bp, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and an A + T-rich region. The nucleotide composition of the A.glabripennis mitogenome is strongly biased toward A + T nucleotides (78.30%). Nine protein-coding genes and 14 tRNA genes are encoded on the H strand, and the other 4 protein-coding genes and 8 tRNA genes are encoded on the L strand. The arrangement of genes is identical to all know longhorn beetles mitochondrial genomes.
