Internal transcribed spacers enable species-level Metataxonomic analysis of ciliated protozoa [PDF]

ISME Communications
Abstract Traditional morphology-based ciliate classification is often time-consuming and inaccurate, necessitating molecular approaches. Although 18S rRNA gene sequencing is widely used for taxonomic analyses of ciliates, its high degree of conservation makes it challenging to achieve species-level resolution.
