Leafhoppers have been identified as a serious threat to different plants. To explore the characteristics of mitogenomes and reveal phylogenetic positions two species in Typhlocybinae, complete Singapora shinshana Seriana bacilla were sequenced annotated for first time with lengths 15,402 bp 15,383 bp, respectively. The contained 13 PCGs, 22 tRNA genes 2 rRNA genes. genome content, gene order, n...

The Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba Dana 1852) is widely distributed throughout the southern ocean, where it provides a key link between primary producers and upper trophic levels and supports a major commercial fishery. Despite its ecological and commercial importance, genetic population structure of the Antarctic kill remains poorly described. In an attempt to illuminate genetic markers fo...

The mitochondrial (mt) genomes of two soybean rust pathogens, Phakopsora pachyrhizi and P. meibomiae, have been sequenced. The mt genome of P. pachyrhizi is a circular 31 825-bp molecule with a mean GC content of 34.6%, while P. meibomiae possesses a 32 520-bp circular molecule with a mean GC content of 34.9%. Both mt genomes contain the genes encoding ATP synthase subunits 6, 8 and 9 (atp6, at...

Most of the well-characterized mitochondrial genomes from diverse green algal lineages are circular mapping DNA molecules; however, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has a linear 15.8 kb unit mitochondrial genome with 580 or 581 bp inverted repeat ends. In mitochondrial-enriched fractions prepared from Polytomella parva (=P. agilis), a colorless, naturally wall-less relative of C. reinhardtii, we have ...

In this study, we describe the mitochondrial genome of the excavate flagellate Euglena gracilis. Its gene complement is reduced as compared with the well-studied sister groups Diplonemea and Kinetoplastea. We have identified seven protein-coding genes: Three subunits of respiratory complex I (nad1, nad4, and nad5), one subunit of complex III (cob), and three subunits of complex IV (cox1, cox2, ...
