The complete mitogenome dataset of Hasora Schoenherr (Latreille, 1824) (Lepidoptera: Hesperiidae: Coeliadinae) from Malaysia

This dataset described the complete mitochondrial genome of the Yellow Banded Awl skipper, Hasora schoenherr (Lepidoptera: Hesperiidae: Coelidinae) from Malaysia, sequenced using the next-generation sequencing technologies. It has a total length of 15,353bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal rRNAs and a control region. The genomic DNA was extracted from fresh tissue sample of Hasora schoenherr using the Qiagen Blood and Tissue Kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA) and the library was prepared using NEBNext® Ultra™ II DNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina®. The sample was then sent for sequencing using the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform with 150 paired-end mode (PE150). The assembly was done using NOVOPlasty v.4.2 and run through a PALEOMIX BAM pipeline to assess the mitogenome mapping. Annotation was done using the MITOS v2 web server in Galaxy Europe (https://usegalaxy.eu/) and the predicted protein-coding genes were further verified using the Open Reading Frame (ORF) Finder. The annotated mitogenome sequence file was converted into an accepted Genbank format using the GB2sequin web application. The circular mitogenome map was generated using Proksee. The mitogenome is available in Genbank under the accession number PQ149492.
