High mitochondrial diversity in geographically widespread butterflies of Madagascar: a test of the DNA barcoding approach.

Molecular phylogenetics and evolution - 1 Mar 2009

Linares Marjorie C, Soto-Calderón Iván D, Lees David C, Anthony Nicola M

Abstract excerpt

The standardized use of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene sequences as DNA barcodes has been widely promoted as a high-throughput method for species identification and discovery. Species delimitation has been based on the following criteria: (1) monophyletic association and less frequently (2) a minimum 10x greater divergence between than within species. Divergence estimates, however, can be...
