The complete mitochondrial genome of Vibrissina turrita (Meigen, 1824) (Diptera, Tachinidae)

Abstract

In this study, the mitogenome of Vibrissina turrita (Meigen, 1824) (Diptera, Tachinidae) was sequenced based on the next-generation sequencing approach and analyzed here for the first time. The 17,387 bp genome has a high A + T content and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and one noncoding control region. The phylogenetic analysis results support that Exoristinae is monophyletic and V. turrita belongs to the subfamily. This study reveals the systematic classification status of V. turrita and will enrich the genetic data on Tachinidae.
