Cryptic species diversity in polypores: the Skeletocutis nivea species complex [PDF]

MycoKeys, 2018
We propose a taxonomic revision of the two closely related white-rot polypore species,Skeletocutisnivea(Jungh.) Jean Keller andS.ochroalbaNiemelä (Incrustoporiaceae, Basidiomycota), based on phylogenetic analyses of nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and translation elongation factor EF-1α sequences.

COMPILATION OF MOLECULAR DATA FOR THE PHYLOGENY OF THE GENUS AUSTROPOTAMOBIUS: ONE SPECIES OR SEVERAL?

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2002
The phylogenetic relationships of the genus Austropotamobius were reviewed by the compilation of two recent genetic studies based on the partial nucleotide sequence of the mitochondrial RNA 16S gene. The results showed a well-resolved phylogeny revealing

The Colletotrichum acutatum species complex

Studies in Mycology, 2012
Colletotrichum acutatum is known as an important anthracnose pathogen of a wide range of host plants worldwide. Numerous studies have reported subgroups within the C. acutatum species complex. Multilocus molecular phylogenetic analysis (ITS, ACT, TUB2, CHS-1, GAPDH, HIS3) of 331 strains previously identified as C.

Cytological and isoenzyme analysis of the Bucay and Quevedo cytotypes of the onchocerciasis vector Simulium exiguum (Diptera: Simuliidae) in Ecuador

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1993
Four cytotypes of Simulium exiguum occur in Ecuador, where this morphospecies is the primary vector of onchocerciasis. In this paper, we give the first full description of the banding pattern of the larval polytene chromosomes of the Quevedo cytotypes ...

Saved by the Shell: Molecular Analysis Detects the Cryptic Sea Hare, Aplysia concava G. B. Sowerby I, 1833 (Mollusca: Heterobranchia: Aplysiidae), from Oceania, with a Redescription

Taxonomy, 2021
A recent taxonomic revision split the circumglobal sea hare Aplysia parvula into 10 constituent taxa, of which only three are likely to be found in the Southern Pacific. This prompted an investigation of animals previously identified as A.
