The complete mitochondrial genome of an Asian longicorn beetle Dorysthenes granulosus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Prioninae)

Abstract

The complete mitogenome sequence of an Asian longicorn beetle Dorysthenes granulosus (Thomson 1860) was sequenced. The 15,858 bp long genome has the standard metazoan complement of 38 genes. These genes contain 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 1 control region. The nucleotide composition of the D. granulosus mitogenome was A: 39.5%, T: 31.7%, G: 10.9%, C: 17.9%. The A＋T content was 71.2%, showing strong AT skew. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that D. granulosus have sister relationship with Dorysthenes paradoxus.
