Coupling molecular data and experimental crosses sheds light about species delineation: a case study with the genus Ciona.

Scientific reports - 24 Jan 2018

Malfant Marine, Darras Sébastien, Viard Frédérique

Abstract excerpt

Molecular studies sometimes reveal evolutionary divergence within accepted species. Such findings can initiate taxonomic revision, as exemplified in the formerly recognized species Ciona intestinalis. While an increasing number of studies have examined the ecology, reproductive barriers and genetics of C. intestinalis and C. robusta, there are still much uncertainties regarding other species of this genus. Using...
