A renaissance of microRNAs as taxonomic and phylogenetic markers in animals

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, Volume 53, Issue 6, Page 754-762, November 2024.
Abstract Molecular markers for tracing animal sample origins and compositions are critical for applications such as parasite detection, contamination screening, and sample authentication. Among these, microRNAs have emerged as promising candidates due to their deep conservation, near‐hierarchical evolution, and stability.
