Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to select a candidate deep-sea amphipod species suitable for connectivity analyses in areas around cobalt-rich ferromanganese crusts (CRCs). We applied DNA barcoding based on the mitochondrial protein-coding gene, cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI), to specimens collected from the Xufu Guyot (the JA06 Seamount) off southeastern Minami-Torishima Island in the North Pacific, where CRCs...
