Empoasca fabae complete mitogenome
Empoasca fabae
This study presents the comprehensive characterization of the mitochondrial genome of the leafhopper species Empoasca fabae (Harris 1841) using Illumina sequencing technology. Through a contig-level assembly of 140 million paired-end reads with SPAdes (v.4.0.0), we isolated a mitochondrial contig spanning 14,873 base pairs and achieving 181x coverage. The base composition revealed A (38.8%), T (39.1%), C (11.7%), and G (10.4%). The annotated mitogenome includes 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), and features a distinctive, non-AT-rich D-loop region.
