Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of Pealius machili (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) is determined to be 15,736 bp in length, comprising 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and a putative control region. The overall base composition is 34.60% for A, 10.87% for C, 12.16% for G, and 42.37% for T, with a high AT bias of 76.97%. Eleven reading frame overlaps and 16 intergenic regions were found in the mitogenome of P. machili. The trnS1 and trnS2 lost the dihydrouracil (DHU) arm, while trnL1 lacked the TΨC arm stem. The phylogenetic tree was constructed based on the 13 concatenated PCGs using neighbor-joining method and showed that P. machili is closely related to Aleurochiton aceris, which is in accordance with the traditional classification.
