Nucleotide sequences of mitochondrial cytochrome b gene for phylogeny of some species of Rodentia

open access: yesBioscience Journal, 2023
Order Rodentia contains approximately half of all living mammalian species. Most of the living species diversity within rodents is within five monophyletic radiations: Hystricognathi, Sciuridae, Geomyoidea, Dipodidae, and Muroidea.

Molecular phylogeny of Lichen Tiger Moths (Lepidoptera, Erebidae, Arctiinae, Lithosiini): a contribution toward classifying Western Hemisphere genera [PDF]

open access: yesZooKeys, 2022
This study analyzes molecular sequence data from one mitochondrial (COI) and two nuclear (28S, RPS5) genes to test the monophyly of previously proposed subtribes of the Lithosiini (Erebidae: Arctidinae), including subtribal assignment of all North ...

What Is an “Arachnid”? Consensus, Consilience, and Confirmation Bias in the Phylogenetics of Chelicerata

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
The basal phylogeny of Chelicerata is one of the opaquest parts of the animal Tree of Life, defying resolution despite application of thousands of loci and millions of sites.

Why biogeographical hypotheses need a well supported phylogenetic framework: a conceptual evaluation

open access: yesPapéis Avulsos de Zoologia, 2007
A growing number of biogeographical methods have attempted to describe formal means of reconstructing the biogeographical history of the organisms. Whatever the biogeographical method, however, the source of systematic information has to be well worked ...

Increasing species sampling in chelicerate genomic-scale datasets provides support for monophyly of Acari and Arachnida

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Chelicerates are a diverse group of arthropods, represented by such forms as predatory spiders and scorpions, parasitic ticks, humic detritivores, and marine sea spiders (pycnogonids) and horseshoe crabs.

The plastid and mitochondrial genomes of Vavilovia Formosa (Stev.) Fed. and the phylogeny of related legume genera

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2020
The plastid and mitochondrial genomes of Vavilovia formosa (Stev.) Fed. were assembled on the base of the data of high-throughput sequencing of DNA isolated from a sample from North Osetia, Russia, using Illumina and PacBio platforms.

A taxonomic review of the vampire catfish genus Paracanthopoma Giltay, 1935 (Siluriformes, Trichomycteridae), with descriptions of nine new species and a revised diagnosis of the genus

open access: yesPapéis Avulsos de Zoologia, 2022
A taxonomic revision is presented of the genus Paracanthopoma, probably the least-known vandelliine genus at present. The work is based on most of the material available in museums worldwide and includes a major expansion in the knowledge about the genus.

Genetic evidence against monophyly of Oniscidea implies a need to revise scenarios for the origin of terrestrial isopods

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Among the few crustacean taxa that managed to inhabit terrestrial environments, Oniscidea includes the most successful colonizers in terms of species richness and abundance.

Morphogenera, monophyly, and macroevolution [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2009
Jablonski and Finarelli (1) suggest that morphogenera, even when they are nonmonophyletic, serve as good representatives for large-scale evolutionary studies. We feel there are two issues that warrant further discussion. First, the test used to evaluate the effect of using nonmonophyletic groups for macroevolutionary studies was not conservative and ...
