The complete mitochondrial genome of Aeolothrips indicus Bhatti, 1964 (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)

Abstract

Here, we have generated the complete mitochondrial sequence of Aeolothrips indicus Bhatti, . So far, this is the first largest mitogenome with 17,042 bp length in order Thysanoptera. It includes 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and two ribosomal RNA genes along with three non-coding regions. AT composition of A. indicus is 72.5% (37.7% A and 34.8% T) and GC 27.5% (15.6% C and 11.9% G). The constructed phylogeny revealed the monophyly of family Aeolothripidae in the order Thysanoptera. The data would provide further insight into the evolution and phylogeny of the order Thysanoptera.
