“…All PCGs, including the COI, which usually uses nonstandard start codons in this group of animals (Ramírez-Ríos et al, 2016), use the standard ATN and TAA (or its abbreviated version T--) as the start and stop codons, respectively (Table 1). COI, COII and ND4 utilize the abbreviated T--stop codon, which is presumed to be converted into TAA via posttranscriptional polyadenylation (Ojala et al, 1981).…”

“…Such damage leads to considerable quantitative and qualitative economic losses and usually infested seeds never germinate (Crombie 1943;Yang et al 2012). Prior to this study, mitochondrial genome of seven species have been sequenced in the Gelechiidae family (Ma et al 2016;Park et al 2016;Ram ırez-R ıos et al 2016). Here, we have sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of S. cerealella based on the samples collected from Huaxi District in Guizhou, China (geographic coordinate: N26 23 0 41.1394571745972 00 , E106 40 0 46.096659178428 00 ), which would facilitate our understanding of the mitochondrial genome, phylogeography and the phylogenic relationship of the Gelechiidae family.…”

In this study, we have sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of Sitotroga cerealella, which is 15,312 bp and contains 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and a control region. Twenty-three genes were found to be encoded by the majority strand and the other 14 genes by minority strand, it is similar to Lepidoptera insects. The nucleotide compositions 39.60% of A, 11.80% of C, 40.90% of T, and 7.70% of G.

“…Species of the Papilionoidea, Noctuidae, Bombycidae, Geometridae, Pyralidae, Gelechiidae, Tortricidae, Yponomeutidae, and Hepialidae superfamilies cluster monophyletic groups, with strongly supported bootstrapped and posterior probabilities (100). All those results and analysis were published by authors of the present chapter in 2016 [7].…”

“…This motif is immediately followed by the tRNA-Met gene [35,41,54] and it seems it has an important role in the replication initiation in minor strand of mtDNA in addition to gene regulation [19,30,41]. Furthermore, eight microsatellite regions were identified within the mitogenome of T. solanivora, referred to as (TAA) 4 , (AT) 8 , and (TAT) 7 . These were the most representative microsatellites found in the species, although the mononucleotide sequences, (T) 6 and (A) 10 , were also identified [55].…”

“…Therefore, it is not surprising that approximately 500 mitogenomes of insects have been determined and subsequently deposited in GenBank [6]. Surprisingly, one of the most recent report shows that only 140 complete Lepidoptera mitogenomes (28 families from 12 superfamilies) have been sequenced and deposited in genomes databases [7], which contrasts with the number of described species in this order, as previously mentioned. In this perspective, it has been the growing research efforts of scientist around the world seeking to expand the knowledge barrier of one mitochondria of Lepidoptera.…”

In this chapter, the complete mitochondrial genome of Guatemalan potato moth, Tecia solanivora (Povolny, 1973) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) is presented as a model to understand how to characterize and study a mitogenome in insects. It was sequenced, analyzed, and compared with other lepidopteran insects. T. solanivora mitogenome is a circular double-stranded molecule, typically found in insects and containing 37 genes, all them well described over the other lepidopteran mitogenomes sequenced. Interestingly, in this mitogenome was found a gene arrangement in the tRNA-Met gene different from the ancestral arrangement, but commonly present in insect mitogenomes. Other important characteristics are the high A + T-biased and negative AT-and GC-skews contents, but also unusual canonical start codons in 12 protein-coding genes and an incomplete stop codon in the cytochrome oxidase subunit II gene consisting of just a Thymine. Another common feature shared with lepidopteran mitogenomes is the A + T-rich region. It is characterized by having 325 bb, the 'ATAGA' motif, a 17 bp poly (T) stretch and a (AT) 8 element preceded by the 'ATTTA' motif. Likewise, this mitogenome has 21 intergenic spacer regions. In addition, an update about other recent mitogenomes research done mainly over lepidopteran insects considered crop pests is presented. On the other hand, a novel development based on induced mutations by CRISPR-Cas9 in the mitogenomes seeking applicable capability for pest control is shown. The utility of this study is to improve scientific databases and support future studies of population genetic in lepidopteran.
