Complete mitochondrial genome of Graphium doson (Papilioninae: Leptocircini)

Abstract

In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Graphium doson was recovered through Illumina sequencing data. This complete mitochondrial genome of G. doson is 15,285 bp in length and has a base composition of A (39.8%), T (41.1%), C (11.5%), and G (7.6%), demonstrating a bias of higher AT content (80.9%) than GC content (19.1%). The mitochondrial genome contains a typically conserved structure among Lineidae mitogenomes, encoding 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNA), two ribosomal RNA genes (12S rRNA and 16S rRNA), and a control region (D-loop region). The whole mt genome of G. doson and other Obtectomera mitogenomes (36 species, in total) were used for phylogenetic analysis. The result indicated G. doson has the closest relationship with Graphium leechi (KX011066.1) and clustered within Leptocircini Clade, which represents a distinct group.
