Identifying Canadian Freshwater Fishes through DNA Barcodes

TL;DR: The present study evidenced that freshwater fish species can be efficiently identified through the use of DNA barcoding, especially the species complex of small-sized species, and that the present COI library can be used for subsequent applications in ecology and systematics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Historical biogeography of South American freshwater fishes

TL;DR: The findings suggest that, rather than there being a single predominant process, the establishment of the modern South American freshwater fish biotas is the result of an interaction between marine incursions, uplift of the palaeoarches, and historical connections allowing cross-drainage dispersal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cryptic diversity in Indo-Pacific coral-reef fishes revealed by DNA-barcoding provides new support to the centre-of-overlap hypothesis.

TL;DR: DNA barcoded 2276 specimens belonging to 668 coral reef fish species through a collaborative effort conducted concomitantly in both Indian and Pacific oceans to appraise the importance of cryptic diversity in species with an Indo-Pacific distribution range and found 162 species found in a single ocean.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogeography of the piranha genera Serrasalmus and Pygocentrus: implications for the diversification of the Neotropical ichthyofauna.

TL;DR: The present results emphasize that an interaction among geology, sea‐level changes, and hydrography created opportunities for cladogenesis in the piranhas at different temporal and geographical scales.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA Barcoding, species delineation and taxonomy: a historical perspective

Nicolas Hubert, +1 more
- 01 Jan 2015 - 
TL;DR: The aim of the present review is to provide an overview of the use of DNA sequences in taxonomy, since the earliest development of molecular taxonomy until the development of DNA barcoding, and to highlight how DNA Barcoding proposed a new paradigm that helps promote more sustainable practices inTaxonomy.
