The mitochondrial genome of Lasioderma serricorne (Coleoptera, Anobiidae).

In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of the Lasioderma serricorne was sequenced and analysed. The mitochondrial genome is 14,476 bp long and contains 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and two non-coding region. Twenty three genes were found to be encoded by the majority strand and the other 14 genes by minority strand, those similar to that of other insects. The nucleotide compositing of the majority strand is 39.74% of A, 11.20% of C, 40.47% of T, and 10.39% of G. The phylogenetic analysis by maximum-likelihood (ML) method revealed that the L. serricorne was close to Lasioderma redtenbacheri.
