Fig. 1

Linear maps of the circular mitochondrial (mt) genomes of Lucilia species/subspecies reported herein. The name of Lucilia species with their collection region is indicated above plots of gene order. Large bars situated on the mt genome maps indicate the position of protein‐coding genes and ribosomal RNA genes. Dark blue bars with annotated labels demarcate the positions of transfer RNA genes. Features of mt genomes are colour coded as indicated at the bottom of the figure. Protein‐coding genes are colour coded to mt complexes and the other features are coloured by type. Colours of protein‐coding, ribosomal RNA and transfer RNA genes are as follows: pink, cytochrome c oxidase (cox genes); dark green, ATP synthase (atp genes); yellow, NADH dehydrogenase (nad genes); light green, cytochrome b gene (cob); red, ribosomal RNAs and dark blue, transfer RNAs. For protein‐coding and ribosomal RNA genes, those sitting above the black line are on the positive strand, and those below the line are on the negative strand. Standard nomenclature was applied for protein-coding genes and ribosomal RNA genes, whereas for transfer RNA genes, single-letter abbreviations were used. The number of species-specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) present in the genes were marked in brown text. Detailed annotations of the mt genomes are provided in Additional file 3: Table S3
