The complete mitochondrial genome of Monochamus alternatus alternatus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae)

Monochamus alternatus alternatus is the major vector of pinewood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, in Asia. The length of the complete mitochondria genome of M. alternatus alternatus was 15,880 bp with 21% GC content, including 39.7% A, 12.3% C, 8.7% G and 39.3% T. There were 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs, and one AT-rich region. This study provides a useful genetic information for subsequent study of the differences between M. alternatus subspecies
