Multi-locus DNA sequence variation in a complex of four leaf beetle species with parapatric distributions: mitochondrial and nuclear introgressions reveal recent hybridization.

Abstract excerpt

While the importance for including multiple independent loci in phylogeographic studies is largely acknowledged, a majority of these still focus on a single species. We combine the study of multilocus DNA sequence variation (one mitochondrial and four unlinked nuclear fragments) at both the inter- and intraspecific levels to explore the evolutionary history of four closely related specialized herbivorous insects...
