Discrimination of closely related species in tintinnid ciliates: new insights on crypticity and polymorphism in the genus Helicostomella.

Protist - 1 Feb 2015

Abstract excerpt

This study focuses on the utility of molecular markers for the discrimination of closely related species in tintinnid ciliates. We analyzed the ecologically important genus Helicostomella by sequencing part of the large-subunit rDNA (LSU rDNA) and the 5.8S rDNA combined with the internally transcribed spacer regions 1 and 2 (5.8S rDNA-ITS) from forty-five individuals collected in NW and SW Atlantic waters and...
