The complete mitochondrial genome and phylogenetic analysis of Dyar, 1905 (Lepidoptera: Zygaenidae).

is a leaf-eating pest that infests pear trees across all pear-producing regions of China. The present study, aimed to sequence the mitochondrial genome (GenBank accession no. MZ726799) using the Illumina NovaSe Sequencing System to understand the population genetics, evolution, and taxonomy of and other related species. The circular mitochondrial genome was found to be 15,252 bps in length and comprised 38 sequence elements including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and a putative control region (CR). Phylogenetic analysis revealed that and are closely related, thereby indicating that their mitochondrial genes may share common ancestry.
