Assessing the suitability of mitochondrial and nuclear DNA genetic markers for molecular systematics and species identification of helminths [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2021
Background Genetic markers are employed widely in molecular studies, and their utility depends on the degree of sequence variation, which dictates the type of application for which they are suited.

Evaluation and utility of mitochondrial ribosomal genes for molecular systematics of parasitic nematodes [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Molecular advances have accelerated our understanding of nematode systematics and taxonomy. However, comparative analyzes between various genetic markers have led to discrepancies in nematode phylogenies.

Gut bacterial diversity on the basis of feeding behaviour in different species of thrips (Thysanoptera)

Journal of Taibah University for Science, 2022
Thrips, tiny to medium sized insects with fringed wings are economically important due to their pestiferous and predatory behaviour. They have a wide range of feeding habitats i.e. leaf feeders, to flower, spore, and fungus feeders.

DNA barcoding of selected short-horned grasshoppers (Orthoptera: Acrididae) from Indian Himalayan region

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
In the context of Indian zoogeography, the DNA barcode data of short-horned grasshoppers (family Acrididae) are limited in global databases. Hence, the present study was aimed to collect selected Acridid species from the Indian Himalayan regions and ...

Persistence of multiple patterns and intraspecific polymorphism in multi-species Müllerian communities of net-winged beetles

Frontiers in Zoology, 2019
Background In contrast to traditional models of purifying selection and a single aposematic signal in Müllerian complexes, some communities of unprofitable prey contain members with multiple aposematic patterns.
