Complete mitochondrial genome of the summer heath fritillary butterfly, Mellicta ambigua (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021 We sequenced the mitochondrial genome (mitogeome) of the summer heath fritillary bullterfly, Mellicta ambigua Ménétriès, 1859 (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae), which is listed as an endangered insect in South Korea. The 15,205-bp long complete genome contained

Experimental and evolutionary evidence for horizontal transfer of an envelope fusion protein gene between thogotoviruses and baculoviruses [PDF]
Journal of VirologyBaculoviruses are insect-specific viruses with large, double-stranded DNA genomes classified into four genera. Alphabaculoviruses, which infect lepidoptera, are further divided into group I (G1-α) and group II (G2-α). The GP64 protein, essential for cell
