“…The length of tRNA genes ranged from 63 to 72 bp. All PCGs started with "ATN" codons except for COI which started with TCG, and terminate with the common stop codons TNN, which is similar to the previous results in other Diptera species (Chen et al 2016;Ren et al 2016;Zhu et al 2016). The lrRNA and srRNA genes are 1364 and 786 bp in length, respectively.…”

The bazaar fly, Musca sorbens (Diptera: Muscidae) Wiedemann, 1830 is a worldwide species with sanitary, medical, and veterinary importance. The complete mitochondrial genome of M. sorbens is sequenced to better understand the mitogenomic characteristics and phylogeny of this species. The circular mitogenome is 16,120 bp in length, contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes (tRNAs), two rRNA genes, and an AT-rich control region. The mitogenome comprises an A þ T content of 77.4%. All PCGs start with "ATN" codons except for COI which starts with TCG, and terminate with the common stop codons TNN. A phylogenetic tree, including six Muscidae species, is reconstructed based on the whole mitogenome sequences. The interspecific distances of mitogenomes between the six Muscidae species range from 0.059 to 0.168.

“…The length of the three complete mt genomes are 16,171 bp in Cestrotus liui , 16,286 bp in Pachycerina decemlineata and 16,426 bp in Spanicelyphus pilosus . They are medium-sized when compared with the mt genomes of other Cyclorrhapha, which range from 14,903 bp ( Aldrichina grahami , Calliphoridae) [ 54 ] to 19,517 bp ( Drosophila melanogaster , Drosophilidae) [ 26 ]. Within cyclorrhaphan mt genomes, length variation is limited in the PCGs, tRNA, and rRNA genes, but there is remarkable variation in the size of the control region ( Figure 2 ).…”

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 Cyclorrhapha. The inferred secondary structure of 22 tRNAs suggested five substitution patterns among the Cyclorrhapha. The control region in the Lauxanioidea has apparently evolved very fast, but four conserved structural elements were detected in all three complete mt genome sequences. Phylogenetic relationships based on the mt genome data were inferred by Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian methods. The traditional relationships between families within the Lauxanioidea, (Chamaemyiidae + (Lauxaniidae + Celyphidae)), were corroborated; however, the higher-level relationships between cyclorrhaphan superfamilies are mostly poorly supported.

“…In general, the insect mitogenome has 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), 21 to 23 transfer RNAs (tRNAs) 6 . It also contains several non-coding regions with the lengthiest being AT-rich control region (Table 1 ) 7 . A typical metazoan mitogenome is small in size, maternally inherited, mutation prone, has minimal or no homologous recombination, with conserved gene content, and high genetic polymorphism, making it a potential sequence for barcoding, phylogeography, phylogenetic and molecular dating research 8 – 10 .…”

Uziflies (Family: Tachinidae) are dipteran endoparasites of sericigenous insects which cause major economic loss in the silk industry globally. Here, we are presenting the first full mitogenome of Blepharipa sp. (Acc: KY644698, 15,080 bp, A + T = 78.41%), a dipteran parasitoid of Muga silkworm (Antheraea assamensis) found in the Indian states of Assam and Meghalaya. This study has confirmed that Blepharipa sp. mitogenome gene content and arrangement is similar to other Tachinidae and Sarcophagidae flies of Oestroidea superfamily, typical of ancestral Diptera. Although, Calliphoridae and Oestridae flies have undergone tRNA translocation and insertion, forming unique intergenic spacers (IGS) and overlapping regions (OL) and a few of them (IGS, OL) have been conserved across Oestroidea flies. The Tachinidae mitogenomes exhibit more AT content and AT biased codons in their protein-coding genes (PCGs) than the Oestroidea counterpart. About 92.07% of all (3722) codons in PCGs of this new species have A/T in their 3rd codon position. The high proportion of AT and repeats in the control region (CR) affects sequence coverage, resulting in a short CR (Blepharipa sp.: 168 bp) and a smaller tachinid mitogenome. Our research unveils those genes with a high AT content had a reduced effective number of codons, leading to high codon usage bias. The neutrality test shows that natural selection has a stronger influence on codon usage bias than directed mutational pressure. This study also reveals that longer PCGs (e.g., nad5, cox1) have a higher codon usage bias than shorter PCGs (e.g., atp8, nad4l). The divergence rates increase nonlinearly as AT content at the 3rd codon position increases and higher rate of synonymous divergence than nonsynonymous divergence causes strong purifying selection. The phylogenetic analysis explains that Blepharipa sp. is well suited in the family of insectivorous tachinid maggots. It's possible that biased codon usage in the Tachinidae family reduces the effective number of codons, and purifying selection retains the core functions in their mitogenome, which could help with efficient metabolism in their endo-parasitic life style and survival strategy.
