Tubificids are aquatic clitellate worms, but recent analyses of morphological characters suggested that this family, as currently recognized, is paraphyletic. Sequences of the 18S rDNA gene of 40 protostome worm species (including 13 representatives of the Tubificidae) and 2 mollusc species were cla

Taxonomic relationships within the corals and anemones (Phylum Cnidaria: Class Anthozoa) are based upon few morphological characters. The significance of any given character is debatable, and there is little fossil record available for deriving evolutionary relationships. We analyzed complete 18S ri
DNA data were collected from a number of acanthomorph fishes for 12S rDNA (30 sequences) and 16S rDNA (39 sequences) to investigate the phylogenetic relationships of genera within Cetomimidae (whalefishes) and of this family within the Stephanoberyciformes/Beryciformes assemblage. The Cetomimidae ar
This study investigated nudibranch phylogeny on the basis of 18S rDNA sequence data. 18S rDNA sequence data of 19 taxa representing the major living orders and families of the Nudibranchia were analyzed. Representatives of the Cephalaspidea, Anaspidea, Gymnomorpha, Prosobranchia, and Pulmonata were
A phylogenetic analysis was conducted on 31 diploid species representing 21 of the 24 monogenomic genera of the Triticeae. The data used were derived from a 1343- to 1358-bp region of the plastid genome spanning the entire rpoA gene plus minor parts of the petD and rps11 genes and the two intergenic
