Complete mitochondrial genome of white-striped long-horned beetle, Batocera lineolata (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) by next-generation sequencing and its phylogenetic relationship within superfamily Chrysomeloidea

Abstract

White-striped long-horned beetle, Batocera lineolata occurred in China, Vietnam, Myanmar, India, Japan and Korea and is one of the most important wood-boring forestry pests. Complete mitochondrial genome was determined based on next-generation sequencing. The long-horned beetle has a total length of 15,420 bp, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA, 2 rRNA genes and a non-coding region. The phylogenetic position was closely clustered with 6 other Lamiinae species with strong node support. Within Chrysomeloidea superfamily, a monophyletic Lamiinae clad is recovered as the sister group of the Cerambycinae from three species and the Chrysomelidae consisting five species forms a monophyletic clade which is strongly supported.

The complete mitochondrial genomes of five longicorn beetles (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) and phylogenetic relationships within Cerambycidae

“…In the last few years, studies of animal mitogenomes have grown rapidly in number and approximately 40,000 mitogenome sequences have now been published in the NCBI database (Tan et al, 2017). By contrast, a mere 18 sequenced mitogenomes of Cerambycidae have been reported, among them being eight mitogenomes belonging to the subfamily Lamiinae, four mitogenomes of the subfamily Cerambycinae, three mitogenomes of the subfamily Prioninae, and three mitogenomes of the subfamily Lepturinae (Kim et al, 2009; Chiu et al, 2016; Fang et al, 2016; Guo et al, 2016; Li et al, 2016a; Li et al, 2016b; Wang et al, 2016; Lim et al, 2017; Liu et al, 2017; Song et al, 2017; Liu et al, 2018; Que et al, 2019; Wang et al, 2019). These few mitogenomes seriously restrict the capacity for phylogenetic analyses and phylogeography of the Cerambycidae.…”

The complete mitochondrial genome ofAnnamanum lunulatum(Coleoptera: Lamiinae) and its phylogeny

“…In order to reconstruct the phylogenetic relationships of Lamiinae, we used 13 protein-coding genes of 24 species, which contained Galeruca daurica as the outgroup (Kim et al 2009;Lu et al 2011;Chiu et al 2016;Fang et al 2016;Guo et al 2016;Li et al 2016;Wang et al 2016;Lim et al 2017;Liu et al 2017;Yang et al 2017;Liu et al 2018;Que et al 2019;Wang, Lan, et al 2019). MrBayes version 3.2 and the RAxML version 8 programs (Ronquist et al 2012;Stamatakis 2014) were used to construct BI and ML trees, respectively (Figure 1).…”

Peer Review #2 of "The complete mitochondrial genomes of five longicorn beetles (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) and phylogenetic relationships within Cerambycidae (v0.1)"

“…For the purpose of reconstructing the phylogenetic relationships of Cerambycidae, a nucleotide dataset (13P26) of the 13 protein-coding genes of 26 complete mitogenomes was used (Table 1) according to the methods of Zhang et al (2019), this included the 5 newly determined sequences and 18 published complete mitogenomes of Cerambycidae (Kim et al, 2009;Chiu et al, 2016;Fang et al, 2016;Guo et al, 2016;Li et al, 2016a;Li et al, 2016b;Wang et al, 2016;Lim et al, 2017;Liu et al, 2017;Song et al, 2017;Liu et al, 2018;Que et al, 2019;Wang et al, 2019). Three species of Galerucinae, Paleosepharia posticata, Diabrotica barberi and Diabrotica virgifera served as the out-groups (Coates & Brad, 2014;Wang & Tang, 2017).…”
