Mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequences are frequently used to infer phylogenetic
relationships of insects at different taxonomic levels. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) …

Background Animal mitochondrial genomes are potential models for molecular evolution
and markers for phylogenetic and population studies. Previous research has shown …

With efficient sequencing techniques, full mitochondrial genomes are rapidly replacing other
widely used markers, such as the nuclear rRNA genes, for phylogenetic analysis but their …

The evolutionary dynamics and phylogenetic utility of mitochondrial genomes
(mitogenomes) have been of particular interest to systematists and evolutionary biologists …

In this study, we assessed the ability of mitochondrial genome sequences to recover a test
phylogeny of five hymenopteran taxa from which phylogenetic relationships are well …

Complete mitochondrial genomes for two corn rootworm species, Diabrotica virgifera
virgifera (16,747 bp) and Diabrotica barberi (16,632; Insecta: Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) …

To provide molecular markers for population genetic analysis of the flea beetle Agasicles
hygrophila, we determined its mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) for the first time. The …

The Coleoptera (beetles) exhibits tremendous morphological, ecological, and behavioral
diversity. To better understand the phylogenetics and evolution of beetles, we sequenced …

The use of molecular data to study the evolutionary history of organisms has revolutionized
the field of systematics. Now with the appearance of high throughput sequencing (HTS) …

We entirely sequenced two new hymenopteran mitochondrial genomes (Cephus cinctus
and Orussus occidentalis), and a substantial portion of another three hymenopterans …
