Can DNA barcoding accurately discriminate megadiverse Neotropical freshwater fish fauna?
(2013-03-09)
Background: The megadiverse Neotropical freshwater ichthyofauna is the richest in the world with approximately 6,000 recognized species. Interestingly, they are distributed among only 17 orders, and almost 80% of them ...
DNA Barconding do gênero Schizodon (Characiformes, Anostomidae)
(Universidade Federal de São CarlosUFSCarPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Genética Evolutiva e Biologia Molecular - PPGGEvCâmpus São Carlos, 2018-08-28)
Fish of the Schizodon genus have important representation in the largest South American basins. Historically they underwent through several taxonomic revisions, due to their high phenotypic plasticity and the ontogenetic ...
The multiple applications of DNA barcodes in avian evolutionary studies
(National Research Council Canada-NRC Research Press, 2016-12)
DNA barcodes of birds are currently available for 41% of known species and for many different geographic areas; therefore, they are a rich data source to answer evolutionary questions. We review studies that have used DNA ...
Barcoding Antarctic fishes: species discrimination and contribution to elucidate ontogenetic changes in Nototheniidae
(Springer, 2016)
Fish species richness in the Southern Ocean accounts for approximately 2 % of the world’s ocean species, with more than 370 species registered and several awaiting for formal description. Here we explore on the use of DNA ...
DNA barcoding supports identification of Malacobdella species (Nemertea: Hoplonemertea)
(Springer, 2015-01-10)
Background: Nemerteans of the genus Malacobdella live inside of the mantle cavity of marine bivalves. The genus currently contains only six species, five of which are host-specific and usually found in a single host species, ...
Highlighting Astyanax species diversity through DNA barcoding
(Public Library of Science, 2016-12)
DNA barcoding has been used extensively to solve taxonomic questions and identify new species. Neotropical fishes are found in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, with a large number of species yet to be described, many ...
Probing Evolutionary Patterns in Neotropical Birds through DNA Barcodes
(Public Library of Science, 2009-02)
Background: The Neotropical avifauna is more diverse than that of any other biogeographic region, but our understanding of patterns of regional divergence is limited. Critical examination of this issue is currently constrained ...
