Sequencing and analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of Ishida, 1913 (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Typhlocybinae: Empoascini).

The complete mitogenome of the cotton leafhopper, Ishida, 1913, was sequenced and annotated. The mitogenome is 14,474 bp long and contains 37 genes, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, as well as a control region. The nucleotide composition of the mitogenome is as follows: A, 39.17%; T, 39.3%; C, 11.13%; and G, 10.39%. The total length of the 13 PCGs is 10,496 bp, which encodes 3503 amino acids. All PCGs start with the ATG codon, except for ATA, ATC, GTG, and ATT. Most of the PCGs stop with TGA, and the remaining with CCT, GAA, GGT, TCA, CCA, CTA, TTA, AAA, ATT, or ATA. The phylogenetic tree shows that belongs to Empoascini of the subfamily Typhlocybinae, but is different from other species within the subfamily.
