Abstract excerpt
A partial sequence of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) was used as a genetic marker for a genetic diversity and phylogenetic analysis (DNA barcoding) of two Mactridae species, Mactra corallina and Eastonia rugosa, collected from the Tunisian coast. These Mactridae species could be distinguished by DNA barcoding techniques and they will be considered as monophyletic clades with the...
