iTaxoTools 0.1: Kickstarting a specimen-based software toolkit for taxonomists

2021-03-29

Abstract excerpt

While powerful and user-friendly software suites exist for phylogenetics, and an impressive cybertaxomic infrastructure of online species databases has been set up in the past two decades, software specifically targeted at facilitating alpha-taxonomic work, i.e., delimiting and diagnosing species, is still in its infancy. Here we present a project to develop a bioinformatic toolkit for taxonomy, based on open-sour...
