Barklice in the genus Lepinotus (Psocoptera Trogiidae) are small, soft-bodied stored-product pests that are difficult to control. We sequenced and annotated the mitochondrial (mt) genome of Lepinotus sp. The mt genome of Lepinotus sp. is 16,299 bp in size with 74.4% A + T content. The gene order was highly conserved in some of the Trogimorpha barklice. Two types of tandem repeat units were identified in CR of Lepinotus sp. The phylogenetic analysis showed that Trogiidae species was the sister group to Lepidopsocidae barklice, and the suborder Troctomorpha was polyphyletic.The mitochondrial genome of the Disckless-fingered Odorous Frog, Odorrana grahami (Anura Ranidae), was sequenced using high-throughput sequencing technology. The genome length was 17864 bp, including 22 tRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes and 1 control region (D-loop). The AT content of the mitochondrial genome was 55.9%. The composition of mitochondrial genome of O. grahami is similar to that of other species of the genus Odorrana. Phylogenetic analysis of the mitochondrial genomes of six congeners shows that O. grahami is sister to O. margaretae, but the analysis using 16S rRNA gene of additional congeners do not resolve their relationships.Abramites hypselonotus, commonly known as marbled headstander, is an important freshwater aquarium fish from Brazil, found in the Orinoco, Amazon, Paraguay and lower Parana River basins. This genus has only two species and only this species occurs in Brazil. The complete mitochondrial genome of Abramites hypselonotus is 16,685 bp in length and it includes 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 rRNAs, 22 tRNAs genes and a control region with 1,028 bp. It has two PCGs with GTG start codon and the others with ATG start codon. Four of the 13 PCGs appear TAA stop codon, three incomplete TA_ stop codon, four incomplete T_ _ stop codon, one contain AGG stop codon and one TAG stop codon. Phylogenetic analysis showed that Abramites hypselonotus formed a sister group of Leporinus affinis (AP011994.1), thus maintaining the Family Anostomidae as a clade.This paper reports on the complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of a horseshoe crab, Tachypleus gigas (T. gigas), in Kuala Kemaman, Terengganu, Malaysia. see more Whole-genome sequencing of hemocyte DNA was performed with Illumina HiSeq system and the generated reads were de novo assembled with ABySS 2.1.5 and reassembled using mitoZ against Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda and Limulus polyphemus, resulting in a contig of 15 Kb. Phylogenetic analysis of the assembled mt genome suggests that the Tachypleus gigas is closely related to Tachypleus tridentatus than to Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda.Verbena officinalis has a long history as a source plant in traditional Chinese medicine. This study adopted next-generation sequencing technology in order to determine complete chloroplast genome of V. officinalis. The results of this investigation showed the chloroplast genome of V. officinalis was 153,286 bp in length, including a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions (each 25,825 bp), separated by a large single-copy region (LSC) of 84,316 bp and a small single-copy region (SSC) of 17,320 bp, and the overall GC contents of the chloroplast genome was 39.04%. Additionally, we annotated 83 genes, including 48 protein-coding genes, 31 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. By creating the phylogenetic tree, relationship between V. officinalis and relevant species was discussed, and the result proved that V. officinalis was closely related to Avicennia marina. The findings of the study will serve as a stepping stone for follow-up researches regarding its chloroplast genome.In this study, we sequenced and annotated the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Neotoxoptera formosana (Takahashi) (Hemiptera Aphididae). The complete mitogenome of N. formosana is 15,642 bp in length, and includes 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosome RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and one control region. The overall base composition was as follows 45.2% of A, 5.8% of G, 10.5% of C, and 38.4% of T, with a total of A + T content of 83.6%. The phylogenetic tree showed that N. formosana and Myzus persicae were clustered into one branch. This result will enrich the mitogenome of family Aphididae.Bambusa vulgaris cv. Wamin is an attractive ornamental bamboo species of southern China. It has large swollen internodes and weeping culms, and it has considerable economic importance. In the present study, we sequenced the complete chloroplast genome of B. vulgaris cv. Wamin and reported it for the first time. The genome was 139,528 bp in total length, including a large single-copy (LSC) region of 83,038 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 12,893 bp, and a pair of invert repeats (IR) regions of 21,799 bp. Plastid genome contained 138 genes, 82 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The overall GC content of the genome was 38.9%. The phylogenetic analysis based on the complete chloroplast genome reveals that B. vulgaris cv. Wamin is closely related to Bambusa teres. This research strengthens the genetic information of both the B. vulgaris cv. Wamin and the phylogenetic analyses of Gramineae.The complete mitochondrial genome of the pavlovophycean microalga Diacronema viridis CCMP 620 was sequenced and characterized. The circular mitogenome is a total 29,282 bp in length with 39.2% GC content and contains 47 genes, including 20 protein-coding, three rRNA, and 24 tRNA genes. The gene synteny of D. viridis and D. lutheri has been highly conserved; however, the gene content (absence of introns and ORFs) and repeat regions (3.7 kbp) of D. viridis contributed to significant difference of mitogenomes within the Diacronema.Gyrinops walla is an important agarwood-producing tree and threatened species from Sri Lanka. Herein, we assembled and characterized the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of G. walla as a genomic resource for conservation purposes. The 175,130 bp long genome is comprised of 87,376 bp large single-copy (LSC) and 3316 bp small single-copy (SSC) regions, which are separated by two inverted repeat (IR) region, each with a size of 42,291 bp. A total of 140 genes were predicted for the cp genome, which includes 94 protein-coding, 38 tRNA, and eight rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis showed that G. walla is fully resolved in a sister position to Aquilaria in the family Thymelaeaceae. The data provided will be useful for study on the molecular phylogenetics and evolution of Thymelaeaceae in the future.see more
