Comparative Mitochondrial Genome and Phylogenetic Analysis of Atteva charopis Turner,1903
Mitochondrial genomes(mitogenomes)advance our understanding of molecular evolution and phylogenetic relationships in Yponomeutoidea.In this study,we sequenced and analyzed the mitochondrial genome of Atteva charopis Turner,1903.We reconstructed the phylogenetic relationships of Yponomeutoidea based on the nucleotide and amino acid data of the mitochondrial genome.In phylogenetic analyses,we selected 10 exemplars of Yponomeutoidea as ingroups,and two species of Tineoidea(Phyllocnistis citrella and Caloptilia theivora)as outgroups.The phylogenetic analyses were conducted using Maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference methods.The mitochondrial genome of Atteva charopis was a circular molecule of 15 163 bp in length(GenBank accession No.OQ130005),containing 13 protein-coding genes,two ribosomal RNA genes,22 transfer RNA genes and a non-coding control region.Compared to the putative insect trn gene(trnI-trnQ-trnM),there has been a trn gene rearrangement(trnI-trnM-trnQ)in this mitochondrial genome.Both phylogenetic inference methods produced a similar tree topological structure:Family Lyonetiidae,Praydidae and Attevidae were the monophyletic groups.However,the family Plutellidae was the non-monophyletic group.The family Attevidae was closely related to Praydidae.In addition,A.charopis was the sister to A.aurea.Our results provide a mitochondrial genome data for the intensive study of the phylogeny of Yponomeutoidea.
