Complete mitochondrial genome of Evacanthus heimianus (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Evacanthinae) from China

Abstract

We have sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of the leafhopper Evacanthus heimianus in Evacanthinae, the mitogenome is 15,806 bp, has an A + T content of 79.89% (A 40.7%; T 39.2% C 10.7%; G 9.4%), which is the classical structure for insect mitogenome. All PCGs started with ATN and stopped with TAN, except ATP8 and ATP6, which started with TTG. The phylogenetic tree confirms that E. heimianus and Sophonia linealis are clustered into a clade. This study enriches the mitogenomes of the Evacanthinae subfamily.
