“…The mitogenome structures and lengths (16,,500 bp) of the three species were consistent with those of other fish species [8,37]. Similar to other animals [38,39], the mitogenomes of Chaenogobius annularis, Rhinogobius shennongensis, and Rhinogobius wuyanlingensis displayed typical circular structure, comprising 13 PCGs, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and one partial CR (Figures 1 and S1, Tables 2-4). The arrangement and orientation of the genes were similar to those found in other Gobiidae species determined in past research [40,41].…”

The Gobiidae family occupy one of the most diverse habitat ranges of all fishes. One key reason for their successful colonization of different habitats is their ability to adapt to different energy demands. This energy requirement is related to the ability of mitochondria in cells to generate energy via oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Here, we assembled three complete mitochondrial genomes of Rhinogobius shennongensis, Rhinogobius wuyanlingensis, and Chaenogobius annularis. These mitogenomes are circular and include 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two rRNAs, 22 tRNAs, and one non-coding control region (CR). We used comparative mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) genome and selection pressure analyses to explore the structure and evolutionary rates of Gobiidae mitogenomics in different environments. The CmC model showed that the ω ratios of all mtDNA PCGs were <1, and that the evolutionary rate of adenosine triphosphate 8 (atp8) was faster in Gobiidae than in other mitochondrial DNA PCGs. We also found evidence of positive selection for several sites of NADH dehydrogenase (nd) 6 and atp8 genes. Thus, divergent mechanisms appear to underlie the evolution of mtDNA PCGs, which might explain the ability of Gobiidae to adapt to diverse environments. Our study provides new insights on the adaptive evolution of Gobiidae mtDNA genome and molecular mechanisms of OXPHOS.

“…Thirteen PCGs were identified, with a total length of 11,100 bp and distributed from 159 bp (atp8) to 1,713 bp (nad5). The shortest and longest PCGs are generally consistent with those found in other insects (Huang et al 2019;Sun et al 2021). Six types of start codons (ATA, TTG, ATA, ATG, ATT, and GTG) and three stop codons (TAA, TAG, T(AA)) were identified in PCGs.…”

“…The sequence of this region is ATGATAA, containing the TAA stop codon of the atp8 gene and the ATG start codon of the atp6 gene. This same seven-bp sequence forms the overlapping region of atp8 / atp6 genes in other insect groups as Lepidoptera [ 36 ] or Hemiptera [ 37 ]. In fact, the atp8 / atp6 gene junction is highly conserved across arthropods [ 21 , 38 ].…”

The ant Tapinoma ibericum Santschi, 1925 is native to the Iberian Peninsula. This species, as well as other species from the Tapinoma nigerrimum complex, could form supercolonies that make these species potentially invasive and could give rise to pests. Recently a mature colony from this species has been found in the Isle of Wight (United Kingdom). Mitogenomes have been used to study the taxonomy, biogeography and genetics of species, improving the development of strategies against pest invasion. However, the number of available mitogenomes from the subfamily Dolichoderinae is still scarce and only two of these mitogenomes belong to Tapinoma species. Herein, the complete mitogenome of T. ibericum is presented in order to increase the molecular information of the genus. The T. ibericum mitogenome, retrieved by Next-Generation Sequencing data, is 15,715 bp in length. It contains the typical set of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNAs and the A + T-rich control region. Comparisons of the T. ibericum mitogenome with other dolichoderine mitogenomes revealed the existence of four gene rearrangements in relation with the ancestral insect mitogenome. One of these rearrangements, involving the tRNA-Ile, tRNA-Gln and tRNA-Met genes, was found in most of the analyzed ant mitogenomes. Probably this rearrangement was an ancestral or plesiomorphic character in Formicidae. Interestingly, another rearrangement that affects to tRNA-Trp, tRNA-Cys and tRNA-Tyr genes was found only in Tapinoma species. This change could be a synapomorphic character for the genus Tapinoma, and could be used as a phylogenetic marker. Additionally, a phylogenetic analysis was performed using the protein-coding gene sequences from available Dolichoderinae mitogenomes, as well as mitogenomes from representative species from other Formicidae subfamilies. Results support the monophyletic nature of the genus Tapinoma placing it within the same clade as the rest of Dolichoderinae species.
