Abstract:
In recent years, bat-associated pathogens, such as 2019 novel coronavirus, have been ravaging the world, and ectoparasites of bats have received increasing attention. Penicillidia jenynsii is a member of the family Nycteribiidae which is a group of specialized ectoparasites of bats. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of P. jenynsii was sequenced for the first time and a comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of the superfamily Hippoboscoidea was conducted. The complete mitochondrial genome of P. jenynsii is 16 165 base pairs (bp) in size, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes and 1 control region. The phylogenetic analysis based on 13 PCGs of the superfamily Hippoboscoidea known from the NCBI supported the monophyly of the family Nycteribiidae, and the family Nycteribiidae was a sister group with the family Streblidae. This study not only provided molecular data for the identification of P. jenynsii, but also provided a reference for the phylogenetic analysis of the superfamily Hippoboscoidea.
摘要:
近年来,与蝙蝠相关的病原体,如2019年新型冠状病毒,一直在肆虐世界,蝙蝠的外寄生虫越来越受到关注。Jenynsii青霉是Nycteribiidae家族的成员,Nycteribiidae是一组专门的蝙蝠外寄生虫。在这项研究中,首次对P.jenynsii的完整线粒体基因组进行了测序,并对Hipposcoidea超家族进行了全面的系统发育分析。P.jenynsii完整的线粒体基因组大小为16165个碱基对(bp),包括13个蛋白质编码基因(PCGs),22个转移RNA基因,2核糖体RNA基因和1个调控区。基于NCBI已知的超家族Hippoboscoidea的13个PCG的系统发育分析支持Nycteribiidae家族的单生,Nycteribiidae家族是Streblidae家族的姐妹团体。这项研究不仅提供了鉴定P.jenynsii的分子数据,同时也为河马超家族的系统发育分析提供了参考。
