A new morphological phylogeny of Malacostraca comparing the application of character dependencies and implied weighting. [PDF]
CladisticsAbstract Using a new character matrix composed of revised matrices of previous analyses and new morphological findings, the phylogeny of Malacostraca (Pancrustacea) is analysed anew with 207 characters for 35 terminal taxa across all recognized orders. Particular emphasis was placed on methodological versatility, including different degrees of implied ...

MetaZooGene Intercalibration Experiment (MZG-ICE): Metabarcoding Marine Zooplankton Diversity of the Global Ocean. [PDF]
Mol Ecol ResourABSTRACT DNA metabarcoding of zooplankton biodiversity is used increasingly for monitoring global ocean ecosystems, requiring comparable data from different research laboratories and ocean regions. The MetaZooGene Intercalibration Experiment (MZG‐ICE) was designed to examine1 and analyse patterns of variation of DNA sequence data resulting from multi ...
