AI Article Synopsis
- The long-horned caddisfly, Milne, 1934, is a common herbivorous species found in various freshwater habitats across North America.
- Whole genome sequencing revealed a complete mitochondrial genome of 14,963 base pairs, characterized by high AT content and containing typical insect features like protein-coding genes and tRNAs.
- Phylogenetic analysis indicates that this caddisfly is closely related to Sericostomatidae within the Trichoptera order, aligning with earlier research findings.
Article Abstract
The long-horned caddisfly Milne, 1934 (Leptoceridae), is a widespread herbivorous North American caddisfly found in both lentic and lotic habitats. Whole genome Illumina sequencing allowed the assembly of a complete circular mitogenome of 14,963 bp from consisting of 73.4% AT nucleotides, 22 tRNAs, 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNAs and a control region in the ancestral insect gene order. features an atypical TTG start codon as in some lepdioptera and prokaryotes. Phylogenetic reconstruction places as sister to (Sericostomatidae) within a monophyletic Order Trichoptera, which is consistent with previous phylogenetic hypotheses.
