Abstract:Studies of evolution and biodiversity require solid understanding of species systematics revealed by molecular phylogeny using multilocus genomic data. Multilocus analyses, nevertheless, remain difficult in non-model taxa due to limited access to samples and molecular resources. To help overcome this limitation, ultra-conserved elements (UCEs) have been developed to generate large nuclear datasets and build more robust species phylogenies. Recently, MitoFinder pipeline was developed to further extract mitochon… Show more
