Abstract excerpt
In the fungal kingdom there is a high prevalence of morphologically defined species that includes closely related 'cryptic' biological species with similar phenotypes. Due to evolutionary processes like incomplete lineage sorting and introgression through hybridization, several independent DNA markers are essential to resolve closely related fungal species. In this study we wanted to analyze how many independent...
