Characterization of mitogenome for pumpkin fruit fly, Zeugodacus tau (Walker) (Diptera: Tephritidae) from Kunming, Southwest China and the phylogeny within subfamily Dacinae

Zeugodacus tau (Walker) (Diptera: Tephritidae), is widely distributed throughout South and Southeast Asia.complete sequence of the mitogenome of Z.tau has been determined ORG KELP GRANULES in this study.The circular genome is 15830 bp long and contains a standard gene complement, that is, the large and small ribosomal RNA subunits, 22 transfer RNA genes, 13 genes encoding mitochondrial big girls woven tee proteins, and a non-coding A + T-rich control region.

The phylogeny showed that Z.tau is closely related to Z.depressus with high bootstrap value supported and that monophyletic Bactrocera, Zeugodacus, and Ceratitidini were correctly identified within subfamily Dacinae.
