“…These results suggest that tRNAs exhibit a higher inclination for nitrogen bases A and G than for T and C. Similar results were reported by [46] in E. pyretorum (AT-skew = 0.039 and GC-skew = 0.174) and [38] in A. melete (AT-skew = 0.034 and GC-skew = 0.142). Among the tRNA genes, 14 are coded on the H-strand and eight on the L-strand with lengths ranged Lepidopterabetween 65 and 71 bp, and these genes exhibited positive AT-skew (0.047) as well as in almost all lepidopteran mitogenomes.…”

“…In the same way, T. solanivora mitogenome exhibits negative AT-skew (−0.013) and GC-skew (−0.226) values ( [36], and A. atlas (A: 39.8, T: 39.5%), among others. Likewise, the cytosine (C) content in the T. solanivora mitogenome was greater than guanine (G), which is similar to the percentages identified in other recently discovered Lepidoptera mitogenomes, except for Antheraea yamamai (G: 10.71, C: 10.35%) [37], Eriogyna pyretorum (G: 10.61, C: 7.45), and Artogeia melete (G: 11.33, C: 8.65%) [38].…”

In this chapter, the complete mitochondrial genome of Guatemalan potato moth, Tecia solanivora (Povolny, 1973) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) is presented as a model to understand how to characterize and study a mitogenome in insects. It was sequenced, analyzed, and compared with other lepidopteran insects. T. solanivora mitogenome is a circular double-stranded molecule, typically found in insects and containing 37 genes, all them well described over the other lepidopteran mitogenomes sequenced. Interestingly, in this mitogenome was found a gene arrangement in the tRNA-Met gene different from the ancestral arrangement, but commonly present in insect mitogenomes. Other important characteristics are the high A + T-biased and negative AT-and GC-skews contents, but also unusual canonical start codons in 12 protein-coding genes and an incomplete stop codon in the cytochrome oxidase subunit II gene consisting of just a Thymine. Another common feature shared with lepidopteran mitogenomes is the A + T-rich region. It is characterized by having 325 bb, the 'ATAGA' motif, a 17 bp poly (T) stretch and a (AT) 8 element preceded by the 'ATTTA' motif. Likewise, this mitogenome has 21 intergenic spacer regions. In addition, an update about other recent mitogenomes research done mainly over lepidopteran insects considered crop pests is presented. On the other hand, a novel development based on induced mutations by CRISPR-Cas9 in the mitogenomes seeking applicable capability for pest control is shown. The utility of this study is to improve scientific databases and support future studies of population genetic in lepidopteran.

“…For example, the trinucleotide TTG was supposed to be the initiation codon for COI gene in the Caligula boisduvalii (Hong et al, 2008), Acraea issoria and Calinaga davidis (Xia et al, 2011); ATA for Sericinus montela (Ji et al, 2012), ATT for Ctenoptilum vasava and Aporia crataegi (Park et al, 2012); the tetranucleotide TTAG for Antheraea pernyi and Coreana raphaelis ; and the hexanucleotides TATTAG for Ostrinia nubilalis and O. furnicalis (Coates et al, 2005), ATTACG for Papilio xuthus (Feng et al, 2010), TTAAAG for Pieris rapae (Mao et al, 2010). Here, by sequence homology comparison with other available lepidopteran species, we tentatively presumed CGA as the start codon for COI gene Jiang et al, 2009;Hong et al, 2009;Kim et al, 2009;Kim et al, 2010;Wang et al, 2011;Tian et al, 2012). …”

“…The second largest spacer is inserted between tRNA His and ND4 (39 bp), which is only correspondingly detected in the Acraea issoria mitogenome (4 bp) , while absent in other sequenced butterfly species (e.g., Kim et al, 2006;Kim et al, 2009;Kim et al, 2010;Wang et al, 2011;Hong et al, 2009;Mao et al, 2010;Ji et al, 2012;Hao et al, 2012). The sequence alignment of this spacer with the neighboring ND4 gene revealed a sequence homology of 82.1%, also suggesting its origin of ND4 duplication (Figure 4).…”

Abstract:In the present study, we report the first complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of the Painted Jezebel, Delias hyparete. The mitogenome of Delias hyparete is 15 186 bp in length, and has typical sets of 37 genes: 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs and a non-coding A+T-rich region. All protein-coding genes are initiated by ATN codons, except for COI, which is tentatively designated by the CGA codon, as observed in other butterfly species. A total of 10 PCGs harbored the complete termination codon TAA or TAG, while the COI, COII and ND5 genes ended at a single T residue. All 22 tRNA genes show typical clover structures, with the exception of the tRNA Ser(AGN) which lacks the dihydrouridine (DHU) stem and is instead replaced by a simple loop. Thirteen intergenic spacers totaling 153 bp, and 13 overlapping regions totaling 46 bp are scattered throughout the whole genome. The 377 bp long of D. hyparete A+T-rich region is not comprised of large repetitive sequences, but harbors several features characteristic of the lepidopteran insects, including the motif ATAGA followed by an 18 bp poly-T stretch, a microsatellite-like (AT) 5 element preceded by the ATTTA motif, an 10 bp polyA-like stretch (AAAAATAAAA) present immediately upstream tRNA Met .

“…So far, the mitogenomes of more than 140 insect species, including 36 lepidopteran species, have been entirely or nearly entirely sequenced Kim et al, 2006;Lee et al, 2006;Liu et al, 2008;Salvato et al, 2008;Hong et al, 2009;Kim et al, 2009;Chai et al, 2012). Owing to its unique characteristics in molecular evolutionary analysis (Cheng et al, 2000), the mitogenome has been broadly applied in phylogenetic, phylogeographic, and comparative genomic studies (Zhang and Shi, 1992).…”

ABSTRACT. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genomes of Curetis bulis and Lycaena phlaeas were determined and analyzed. The circular genomes are 15,162 bp long for C. bulis and 15,280 bp long for L. phlaeas, with a total A+T content of 82.6 and 83.1%, respectively. Both mitogenomes contain 37 genes, and their gene orders are similar to those of other lepidopterans. All protein-coding genes (PCGs) are initiated by ATN codons, except for cox1, which is started with the CGA codon; all PCGs terminate in the typical stop codon TAA, except for cox1, cox2, and nad4, which end with a single T. The codons TTA (Leu), ATT (Ile), TTT (Phe), ATA (Met), and AAT (Asn) appear the most frequently. Both of the mitogenome A+T-rich regions harbor the motif ATAGA, followed by a 19-bp Mitochondrial genomes of Curetis bulis and Lycaena phlaeas poly(T) stretch, with C. bulis containing a microsatellite-like (AT) 5 element next to the ATTTA motif, and L. phlaeas containing a microsatellite-like (TA) 6 (AT) element next to the ATTTA motif. The phylogenetic trees of the 17 representative butterfly species, including the two species of this study, were reconstructed with the maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference methods, based on the 13 PCG nucleotide sequence data. The results of the phylogenetic analyses strongly supported the relationships of ((((Lycaenidae + Pieridae) + Nymphalidae) + Hesperiidae) + Papilionidae), which was markedly different from the traditional morphological view of the Lycaenidae and Nymphalidae considered to be sisters of each other.
