ABSTRACT 2,604 names at the rank of subtribe, tribe, subfamily, family and superfamily
have been proposed for Recent and fossil gastropods, and another 35 for …

Molluscs comprise the second largest phylum of animals (after arthropods), occurring in
virtually all habitats. Some are commercially important, a few are pests and some carry …

The advent in high-throughput-sequencing (HTS) technologies has revolutionized
conventional biodiversity research by enabling parallel capture of DNA sequences …

Over the past decade the mitochondrial (mt) genome has become the most widely used
genomic resource available for systematic entomology. While the availability of other types …

Complete mitochondrial genomes have been shown to be reliable markers for phylogeny
reconstruction among diverse animal groups. However, the relative difficulty and high cost …

Gastropod molluscs are among the most diverse and abundant animals in the oceans, and
are successful colonizers of terrestrial and freshwater environments. Past phylogenetic …

Knowledge about fungi diversity following different planting patterns could improve our
understanding of soil processes and thus help us to develop sustainable management …

Molluscs are diverse and important enough to receive considerable scientific attention. We
herein question recent opinions that the molluscan origin, deep inner relationships, and …

In order to further resolve the phylogenetic relationships within Caenogastropoda, the
complete mitochondrial (mt) genomes of Cochlostoma hidalgoi (Cyclophoroidea), Naticarius …

Biodiversity analyses based on next‐generation sequencing (NGS) platforms have
developed by leaps and bounds in recent years. A PCR‐free strategy, which can alleviate …
