The complete mitochondrial genome of the firefly, Luciola curtithorax (Coleoptera: Lampyridae)

We report the complete mitochondrial genome of firefly, Luciola curtithorax. The circular genome of 16,882 bp has a base composition of A (44.98%), C (11.84%), G (8.15%), and T (35.03%). Our sequence is similar to other Metazoa, which contains 13 protein-coding genes. All 13 protein-coding genes wer...

description We report the complete mitochondrial genome of firefly, Luciola curtithorax. The circular genome of 16,882 bp has a base composition of A (44.98%), C (11.84%), G (8.15%), and T (35.03%). Our sequence is similar to other Metazoa, which contains 13 protein-coding genes. All 13 protein-coding genes were initiated by the ATN (ATT, ATA, and ATG) codon. Ten protein-coding genes stopped with TAA or TAG codon and the other three genes have an incomplete termination codon, a single T––. We sequenced the mitochondrial genome of fireflies to analyze phylogenetic relationships and deduce the evolution of their flashing signals.
