Abstract
Background: Chironomidae occupy a pivotal position within global aquatic ecosystems. The unique structural attributes of the mitochondrial genome provide profound insights and compelling evidence, underpinning the morphological classification of organisms and substantially advancing our understanding of the phylogenetic relationships within Chironomidae. Results: We have meticulously sequenced, assembled, and annotated the mitogenomes of Tanypus chinensis (Wang, 1994) and Tanypus kraatzi (Kieffer, 1912), incorporating an additional 25 previously published mitogenomes into our comprehensive analysis. This extensive dataset enables us to delve deeper into the intricate characteristics and nuances of these mitogenomes, facilitating a more nuanced understanding of their genetic makeup. Conclusions: The genomic nucleotide composition of T. kraatzi was 39.10% A, 36.51% T, 14.33% C, and 10.06% G, with a total length of 1508 bp. The genomic nucleotide composition of T. chinensis was 39.61% A, 36.27% T, 14.55% C, and 9.57% G, with a total length of 1503 bp. This significant enrichment of the chironomid mitogenome library establishes a novel foundation for further exploration in the realm of phylogenetics.
