Publication at Faculty of Science |
2012

Abstract

A complete mitochondrial genome was for the first time established and analyzed in a species of Enicocephalomorpha (Heteroptera), Its basic gene arrangement is unique among insects, and relationship of Enicocephalomorpha as a sister-group to the rest of true bugs is corroborated. All the known mitochondrial genomes of Heteroptera are surveyed and a new cladogram of infraorders is provided
