Abstract excerpt
The hypervariable region I (HVRI) is persistently used to discern haplotypes, to distinguish geographic subpopulations, and to infer taxonomy in a range of organisms. Numerous studies have highlighted greater heterogeneity elsewhere in the mitochondrial DNA control region, however-particularly, in some species, in other understudied hypervariable regions. To assess the abundance and utility of such potential...
