Strand asymmetry in nucleotide composition is a remarkable feature of animal mitochondrial genomes. Understanding the mutation processes that shape strand essential for comprehensive knowledge genome evolution, demographical population history and accurate phylogenetic inference. Previous studies found relative contributions different substitution types to are associated with replication alone or both transcription. However, transcription remain unclear. Here we conducted broad survey across...
Three new genera are described:
Animal mitochondrial genomes are potential models for molecular evolution and markers phylogenetic population studies. Previous research has shown interesting features in hymenopteran genomes. Here, we conducted a comparative study of the family Braconidae, one largest families Hymenoptera, assessed utility genomic data inference at three different hierarchical levels, i.e., Holometabola.Seven from seven subfamilies Braconidae were sequenced. Three four sequenced A+T-rich regions to be...
