Barcoding animal life: cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 divergences among closely related species

Explore this paper's citation graph

Summary

It is indicated that sequence divergences at COI regularly enable the discrimination of closely allied species in all animal phyla except the Cnidaria and constraints on intraspecific mitochondrial DNA divergence arising through selective sweeps mediated via interactions with the nuclear genome.
