Mitochondrial genome of Bactrocera tuberculata using next-generation sequencing from China and its phylogenetic implication

Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Bactrocera tuberculata (Diptera: Tephritidae: Dacinae) was sequenced and annotated. The mitochondrial genome is 15,273 bp (GenBank No. MT196006), containing 72.2% A + T (A 38.4%, C 16.9%, G 10.9%, and T 33.8%), which is the classical structure for insect mitogenome. All PCGs were started with ATN (ATA/ATG/ATT/ATC) and terminated with TAA except ND3, which ends with TAG. Additionally, the phylogenetic tree confirmed that B. tuberculata was closely related to Bactrocera diaphora and Bactrocera oleae. The current study would enrich the information about mitogenomes of the fruit flies.
