DNA-barcoding of forensically important blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) in the Caribbean Region
Correct identification of forensically important insects, such as flies in the family Calliphoridae, is a crucial step for them to be used as evidence in legal investigations. Traditional identification based on morphology has been effective, but has some limitations when it comes to identifying immature stages of certain species. DNA-barcoding, using COI, has demonstrated potential for rapid a...
متن کاملCoalescent species delimitation in milksnakes (genus Lampropeltis) and impacts on phylogenetic comparative analyses.
Both gene-tree discordance and unrecognized diversity are sources of error for accurate estimation of species trees, and can affect downstream diversification analyses by obscuring the correct number of nodes, their density, and the lengths of the branches subtending them. Although the theoretical impact of gene-tree discordance on evolutionary analyses has been examined previously, the effect ...
متن کاملPhylogenetic and coalescent strategies of species delimitation in snubnose darters (Percidae: Etheostoma).
The rapid accumulation of multilocus data sets has led to dramatic advances in methodologies for estimating evolutionary relationships among closely related species, but relatively less advancement has been made in methods for discriminating between competing species delimitation hypotheses. Multilocus data sets provide an advantage in testing species delimitation scenarios because they offer a...
متن کاملAssessment of SCoT and DAMD molecular markers in genetic diversity and species delimitation of three moss species grown in Iran
This study was conducted to assess the efficacy of SCoT and DAMD molecular markers in genetic diversity of three moss species and compare them with ISSR marker. Another objective was to evaluate the suitability of these DNA markers in species identification (delimitation) in three moss species, including Neckera complanata, Homalothecium sericeum and Neckera cris...
متن کاملAssessing Species Boundaries Using Multilocus Species Delimitation in a Morphologically Conserved Group of Neotropical Freshwater Fishes, the Poecilia sphenops Species Complex (Poeciliidae)
Accurately delimiting species is fundamentally important for understanding species diversity and distributions and devising effective strategies to conserve biodiversity. However, species delimitation is problematic in many taxa, including 'non-adaptive radiations' containing morphologically cryptic lineages. Fortunately, coalescent-based species delimitation methods hold promise for objectivel...
