Abstract

Cottony ash psyllid (CAP, Psyllopsis discrepans) is an important, invasive insect pest of ash trees in North America, where it has established populations and is the host of a newly identified strain of ‘ Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum’. However, not much is known about the diversity of its introduced population. In this study, a CAP mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequence was obtained from a collection in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. The CAP mitogenome is a circular DNA of 18,824 bp, encoding 13 protein-coding genes, 21 transfer RNA genes, and two ribosomal RNA genes. BLAST search using the CAP mitogenome as a query against the GenBank sequence database showed the mitogenome of Euphyllura phillyreae (15,202 bp) was the most similar (query coverage = 77%; percentage identity = 78.90%). The CAP mitogenome is significantly different from other known psyllid mitogenomes with the presence of a 4,357-bp control region. The mitogenome sequence will further the genomic understanding of CAP.
