Characterization of mitochondrial genome and phylogenetic implications for Chinese black ant, (Hymenoptera: Formicidae).

Chinese black ant, Smith, also known as Roger has been used as a traditional edible insect and Chinese medicine in China and some southeast countries for thousands of years. In this study, Mitogenome of this species was assembled with high coverage using Illumina sequencing data and is 15,806 bp long in size. The base composition is 37.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Simao pine caterpillar moth, (Lepidoptera: Lasiocampidae) and the related phylogenetic analysis.

, the Simao pine caterpillar moth is an economically important forest pest causing great damage to coniferous trees in south China. The whole mitogenome for the moth was sequenced using next-generation sequencing technology. The moth has a total length of 15,422 bp in mitogenome size.
