Mitochondrial Genomes Provide Insights into the Phylogeny of Lauxanioidea (Diptera: Cyclorrhapha)

Abstract: The superfamily Lauxanioidea is a significant dipteran clade including over 2500 known species in three families: Lauxaniidae, Celyphidae and Chamaemyiidae. We sequenced the first five (three complete and two partial) lauxanioid mitochondrial (mt) genomes, and used them to reconstruct the phylogeny of this group. The lauxanioid mt genomes are typical of the Diptera, containing all 37 genes usually present in bilaterian animals. A total of three conserved intergenic sequences have been reported across the Cyclo… Show more

“…This is comparable to many other insect orders in that deep-level (e.g. families/superfamily) relationships are seemingly robust to analytical decisions such as taxon selection, data inclusion/exclusion or alignment method, while shallow-level relationships show differing degrees of sensitivity 64,[70][71][72][73][74] . The root cause of these sensitivities cannot be determined at this time, as the 'true' phylogeny of thrips is not yet known to compare individual analyses against.…”

“…4 ). Atypical numbers and structures of tRNA have been reported in other insects 8 , 38 , 41 43 . The factors that may have led to these truncated tRNAs remain unknown, although truncation may be a result of generalized evolutionary pressures for size reduction in mitogenomes 6 , 44 , but such an explanation requires the existence of compensatory mechanisms.…”

“…The CR regulates the replication and transcription of mitogenome, and many conserved blocks (CBS) were considered to play a key role in the function of CR [ 31 ]. In insect mitogenomes, the CBS are diverse in different lineages [ 31 , 32 ]. In lepidopteran mitogenomes, four conserved elements have been found in nearly all the Ditrysia species, i.e.…”
