Species Recognition and Cryptic Species in the Tuber indicum Complex

PLoS ONE, 2011
Morphological delimitation of Asian black truffles, including Tuber himalayense, T. indicum, T. sinense, T. pseudohimalayense, T. formosanum and T. pseudoexcavatum, has remained problematic and even phylogenetic analyses have been controversial. In this study, we combined five years of field investigation in China with morphological study and DNA ...

Restricted Gene Flow among Lineages of Thrips tabaci Supports Genetic Divergence Among Cryptic Species Groups. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Knowledge of the relative influence of population- versus species-level genetic variation is important to understand patterns of phenotypic variation and ecological relationships that exist among and within morphologically indistinguishable cryptic ...

Finding Evolutionary Processes Hidden in Cryptic Species [PDF]

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2018
Cryptic species could represent a substantial fraction of biodiversity. However, inconsistent definitions and taxonomic treatment of cryptic species prevent informed estimates of their contribution to biodiversity and impede our understanding of their evolutionary and ecological significance.

Identification of the plant mitochondrial OrfX protein: A mass spectrometry approach

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The mitochondrial genome of plants contains an open reading frame, orfx, which encodes a rare protein that has so far escaped mass spectrometric detection. The protein resembles the c‐subunit of bacterial twin‐arginine‐motif‐dependent protein translocases (TatC).

RNA Sequencing Resolves Cryptic Pathogenic Variants in Mitochondrial Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Mitochondrial diseases are the most common inherited metabolic disorders, characterized by pronounced clinical and genetic heterogeneity that complicates molecular diagnosis. Although DNA‐based sequencing approaches have become standard in genetic testing, up to half of patients remain without a definitive diagnosis.

Disentangling the identity of Lebertia porosa Thor, 1900 using integrative taxonomy (Acari: Hydrachnidia)

European Journal of Taxonomy, 2022
Initial analyses of DNA barcode data from Norwegian populations attributed to the water mite Lebertia porosa Thor, 1900 revealed large genetic divergence and potentially cryptic species-level diversity.

Cryptic species are widespread across vertebrates

Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
Abstract Many species delimited by morphological data contain two or more species that are distinct based on molecular data (i.e. cryptic species). Cryptic species have important implications for ecology, evolution and conservation. For example, morphology-based species of limited conservation concern can contain cryptic species that ...

Metabolic Labeling and Visualization of Isoprenoids Using Alkyne‐Modified DMAPP Analogs in Bacillus subtilis

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Fluorescence‐based visualization and targeted mass–spectrometric enrichment of membrane‐embedded isoprenoids in Bacillus subtilis via cell‐permeant, alkynylated DMAPP analogs. ABSTRACT Isoprenoids are a chemically and functionally diverse class of metabolites that underlie essential bacterial physiology including respiration and cell envelope ...
