Complete mitogenome of the entomopathogenic fungus Orbiocrella petchii

Abstract

In this study, the complete mitogenome of an entomopathogenic fungus Orbiocrella petchii (syn. Torrubiella petchii) was assembled and annotated. This circular mitogenome was 23,794 bp in length and consisted of 2 rRNA genes (rnl and rns), 25 tRNA genes, and 14 standard protein-coding genes of the oxidative phosphorylation system. Two group I introns were identified, and they encoded ribosomal protein S3 (in rnl) or a GIY-YIG endonuclease (in nad1). Phylogenetic analysis based on mitochondrial DNA sequences confirms O. petchii in the family of Clavicipitaceae.
