Abstract:
Gonista bicolor belongs to Orthoptera, Acrididae, Gonista Bolivar, which is widely distributed in China. In this work, we first published the complete mitochondrial genome of G. bicolor. It is 15 618 bp long, and the AT content of the whole genome (J-strand) is 76.3%. The mitogenome consists of 37 typical invertebrate mitochondrial genes and a 761 bp (A + T) rich region. Of the 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 12 start with a standard ATN codon except for COI, whose initiation codon is ACC. Eight PCGs use TAG or TAA as complete termination codons, while others terminate with T or TA. The size of the lrRNA and srRNA genes is 1321 and 793 bp, respectively. Here, we use the 13 PCGs of G. bicolor, together with 12 other related species (two species as the outgroup) as PCGs data set, to construct the species phylogenetic tree.
