The complete mitochondrial genome of the summer fruit tortrix moth Adoxophyes orana (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae).

ABSTRACT

The complete mitochondrial genome of the summer fruit tortrix moth Adoxophyes orana (Lepdioptera Tortricidae) was determined (GenBank accession No. JX872403). The genome is 15,343 bp long with 37 typical animal mitochondrial genes and an A+T-rich region. As in other sequenced mitochondrial genomes of Lepidoptera, trnM was rearranged to the upstream of trnI-trnQ-trnM cluster compared with the pupative ancestral arrangement of insects. All protein-coding genes start with ATN start codon except for the gene cox1, which uses CGA start codon as in other lepidopteran species. Eight protein-coding genes stop with termination codon TAA. Five protein-coding genes use incomplete stop codons T. The A+T-region is located between rrnS and trnM with a length of 331 bp. This is the fifth completely sequenced mitochondrial genome from the family Tortricidae.
