The complete mitochondrial genome of Apis mellifera unicolor (Insecta: Hymenoptera: Apidae), the Malagasy honey bee

The complete mitochondrial genome of the endemic Malagasy honey bee Apis mellifera unicolor is 16,373 bp and comprises 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and a control region. The mitochondrial genome closely resembles mitogenomes of other published Apis mellife...

Descripción
Sumario:The complete mitochondrial genome of the endemic Malagasy honey bee Apis mellifera unicolor is 16,373 bp and comprises 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and a control region. The mitochondrial genome closely resembles mitogenomes of other published Apis mellifera subspecies, and the phylogenetic analysis suggests that A. m. unicolor is distinct from other African (A) lineage honey bees but is most closely related to the honey bees from southern African: A. m. scutellata and A. m. capensis.
