Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of Sogatella kolophon (Hemiptera: Delphacidae)

Abstract

Abstract In this study, we sequenced and annotated the complete mitochondrial genome of Sogatella kolophon (Kirkaldy) (Hemiptera: Delphacidae). The mitogenome was 16,708\u2009bp in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes and a control region. All PCGs started with ATN, except for atp6 and nad5, which used noncanonical codon GTG, respectively. All tRNAs could fold into typical clover-leaf secondary structures, with the exception of two trnS genes, lacking the dihydrouridine (DHU) stem.
