Complete mitochondrial genome of the Grapholita dimorpha Komai (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)

Here we report the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the Grapholita dimorpha Komai (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) (GenBank accession No. KJ671625). This is the second species with sequenced mitochondrial genome from the genus Grapholita. The length of this mitochondrial genome is 15,813 bp with an A+T content of 74.84%, including 13 protein-coding, 2 rRNA and 22 tRNA genes, and an A+T-rich region (Table 1). As in most other sequenced mitochondrial genomes of Lepidoptera, trnM was rearranged to the upstream of trnI-trnQ-trnM cluster compared with the pupative ancestral arrangement of insects. All protein-coding genes start with ATN start codon except for the gene cox1, which uses CGA as in other lepidopteran species. Seven protein-coding genes stop with termination codon TAA. Six protein-coding genes use incomplete stop codon T. The A+T-rich region is located between rrnS and trnM with a length of 848 bp, longer than that in most other lepidopteran species.
