TL;DR: The MITOS pipeline is designed to compute a consistent de novo annotation of the mitogenomic sequences and it is shown that the results of MITOS match RefSeq and MitoZoa in terms of annotation coverage and quality.
3,323 citations
TL;DR: The results suggest that the ancestral ITS2 types may have arisen following an ancient interspecific hybridization or gene duplication which occurred prior to the evolutionary radiation of the Gibberella fujikuroi complex and related species of Fusarium.
1,764 citations
TL;DR: Despite the near-universal usage of ITS sequence data in plant phylogenetic studies, its complex and unpredictable evolutionary behavior reduce its utility for phylogenetic analysis, and it is suggested that more robust insights are likely to emerge from the use of single-copy or low-copy nuclear genes.
1,718 citations
TL;DR: A new index to measure substitution saturation in a set of aligned nucleotide sequences based on the notion of entropy in information theory is introduced and illustrated by applying it to an analysis of the aligned sequences of the elongation factor-1alpha gene originally used to resolve the deep phylogeny of major arthropod groups.
1,319 citations
TL;DR: This study provides further evidence that the supermatrix approach provides an effective strategy for inferring large-scale phylogenies using the combined results of previous studies, despite many taxa having extensive missing data.
