comparative analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the pistachio psyllid, Agonoscena pistaciae
The pistachio psyllid, Agonoscena pistaciae, is one of the most deleterious pests of pistachio trees.Mitochondrial genome sequencing furnishes valuable information about insect evolution and diversity within and among populations.Here, we described the first complete mitochondrial genome of the pistachio psyllid high-throughput next generation sequencing. The circular mitochondrial genome of A. pistaciae was 15,346 bp in length encoding 37 genes, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 rRNA genes and 22 tRNA genes, with a long non-coding region (putative control regions).
