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.
