The complete mitochondrial genome of seed pest from Sophora moorcroftiana

The mitochondrial genome of the seed pest from Sophora moorcroftiana was completely determined. The mitochondrial genome was 15,294 bp in length and contained 37 typical invertebrate mitochondrial genes, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCG), two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes and one control region. All polyproteins started with Met. All the PCGs harbored the termination codon TAA except the incomplete termination codon T for COII gene. All tRNAs can folded into standard cloverleaf secondary structures. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the seed pest from Sophora moorcroftiana is more closely related to a newly reported species in Meroptera genus (under GenBank no. MF073207).
