Abstract

The present study for the first time describes the complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of Antheraea pernyi Guérin-Méneville 1855 strain Luhong, a genetic lethal mutant exhibiting especially red skin color. The mt genome is 15,563 bp in length that is the smallest among the sequenced A. pernyi inbred strains. This genome displays an identical genomic component and gene order to other six known A. pernyi mt genomes. The mt genome-based phylogenetic analysis clustered Luhong with four strains exhibiting yellow skin color, consistent with the traditional view that all of them belonged to the yellow blood lineage.

柞蚕株鲁红全线粒体基因组的表征

摘要

本研究首次描述了柞蚕Guérin-Méneville 1855 株 Luhong的完整线粒体 (mt) 基因组，这是一种表现出特别红色皮肤的遗传致死突变体。在MT基因组的长度15563碱基即测序中最小柞蚕近交系。该基因组显示出与其他六个已知的柞蚕基因组相同的基因组成分和基因顺序。基于mt基因组的系统发育分析将鹿红与表现出黄色皮肤颜色的四个菌株聚集在一起，这与传统观点认为它们都属于黄色血统是一致的。
