From: Fragmented mitochondrial genomes are present in both major clades of the blood-sucking lice (suborder Anoplura): evidence from two Hoplopleura rodent lice (family Hoplopleuridae)

Figure 2

The mitochondrial (mt) genomes of Hoplopleura akanezumi (A) and Hoplopleura kitti (B). Each minichromosome has a coding region (with gene name, transcription orientation and length indicated) and a non-coding region (in black). Minichromosomes are in alphabetical order by the names of their protein coding and rRNA genes. Abbreviations of gene names are: atp6 and atp8 (for ATP synthase subunits 6 and 8), cox1-3 (for cytochrome coxidase subunits 1-3), cob (for cytochrome b), nad1-4 and nad4L (for NADH dehydrogenase subunits 1-6 and 4 L), rrnS and rrnL (for small and large subunits of ribosomal RNA). tRNA genes are shown with the single-letter abbreviations of their corresponding amino acids. Minichromosomes that have identical gene content and gene arrangement between the two Hoplopleura species are indicated with asterisk symbols “*”.
