Morphological Identification and Phylogenetic Analysis of Laelapin Mite Species (Acari: Mesostigmata: Laelapidae) from China

Abstract: Laelapinae mites are involved in transmission of microbial diseases between wildlife and humans, with an impact on public health. In this study, 5 mite members in the subfamily Laelapinae (laelapin mites; LM) were morphologically identified by light microscopy, and the phylogenetic relationship of LM was analyzed in combination with the sequence information of part of the LM cytochrome oxidase subunit I (cox1) gene. The morphological identification revealed that 5 mites belonged to the genera Laelaps and Haemo… Show more

“…The mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene was used for the taxonomical identification of mesostigmatic mites and the determination of their intra- and interspecific variation [ 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 ]. Recent genetic studies investigated the population genetic structure of Laelaps agilis mites across Europe and revealed their phylogenetic relationships [ 28 ].…”

“…longigynium and Quadristernoseta cf. intermedia ) retained the ancestral pattern of mitochondrial gene arrangement of arthropod, while other species show varying degrees of rearrangement (Thomas et al ., 2011 ; Osuna-Mascaró et al ., 2020 ; Zhang et al ., 2021 ; Yang et al ., 2022 ). However, there are multiple gene duplications in the mitochondrial genomes of Euseius nicholsi (2 of trnM and trnF ) and Metaseiulus occidentalis (duplicated 18 genes).…”

“…The mitochondrial genome is the only extra-nuclear genetic information carrier in animals, and it has the characteristics of lack of extensive recombination, conserved gene content, matrilineal inheritance, small molecular weight (approximately 14–21 kb), high mutation rate and a fast evolutionary rate (Yang et al ., 2022 ). Therefore, mitochondrial DNA is often considered a useful molecular marker for species identification, phylogeography, analysis of population structure and dynamics and molecular evolution.…”
