Abstract EN
The complete 15,599-bp mitogenome of Acrida cinerea was determined and compared with that of the other 20 orthopterans.
It displays characteristic gene content, genome organization, nucleotide composition, and codon usage found in other Caelifera mitogenomes.
Comparison of 21 orthopteran sequences revealed that the tRNAs encoded by the H-strand appear more conserved than those by the L-stand.
All tRNAs form the typical clover-leaf structure except trnS (agn), and most of the size variation among tRNAs stemmed from the length variation in the arm and loop of TΨC and the loop of DHU.
The derived secondary structure models of the rrnS and rrnL from 21 orthoptera species closely resemble those from other insects on CRW except a considerably enlarged loop of helix 1399 of rrnS in Caelifera, which is a potentially autapomorphy of Caelifera.
In the A+T-rich region, tandem repeats are not only conserved in the closely related mitogenome but also share some conserved motifs in the same subfamily.
A stem-loop structure, 16 bp or longer, is likely to be involved in replication initiation in Caelifera and Grylloidea.
A long T-stretch (>17 bp) with conserved stem-loop structure next to rrnS on the H-strand, bounded by a purine at either end, exists in the three species from Tettigoniidae.
