TL;DR: Only one restriction site polymorphism appeared geographically informative, clearly distinguishing populations north versus south of Florida's Cape Canaveral region, and its probable zoogeographic significance is underscored by its perfect concordance with the distribution of a key morphological character and striking agreement with phylogeographic patterns observed for mtDNA profiles of several other coastal marine species.

TL;DR: To address the suitability of mitochondrial DNA sequence data for higher avian systematics, cytochrome b sequences for nine species of Cuculiformes and Galliformes were gathered and compared to those of the Hoatzin, a specialized bird whose phylogenetic affinities have long puzzled ornithologists.

TL;DR: The micro‐ and macro‐phylogeographic mtDNA patterns in the musk turtle are consistent with a low‐dispersal natural history, and with a suspected longer‐term biogeographic history of the species, respectively.

TL;DR: A large-scale comparative phylogenetic analyses have begun to reveal the evolutionary patterns and putative causes for much of the diversity in ray-finned fishes (Actinopterygii) as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, maternally inherited cytoplasmic polymorphisms assayed jointly with those at biparentally inherited nuclear loci provide powerful genetic markers to dissect ethological, ecological, and evolutionary processes in hybrid settings.
