Abstract

Abstract: The complete mitochondrial genome of the praying mantises Asiadodis yunnanensis was characterized in this study. The circular molecule is 15, 416 bp in length (GenBank accession no. MN037794), containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes. The nucleotide composition is asymmetric (39.5% A, 15.1% C, 9.6% G, 35.8% T), with an overall A + T content of 75.3%. The gene arrangement of A. yunnanensis is identical to that observed in other praying mantises. Seven PCGs are initiated with typical ATN start codons, Four genes ( cox1, nad3, nad4L, and nad6 ) begin with TTN, nad1 begin with GTT, and nad5 use CTT, as initiation codon. Twelve PCGs stop with complete termination codon TAA and TAG, whereas nad5 uses incomplete termination codon (T––). Twenty reading frame overlaps and seven intergenic regions are found in the mitogenome of A. yunnanensis . The phylogenetic relationships based on 13 PCGs show that A. yunnanensis clusters closest to the species of Mantidae.
