TLDR
Despite poor hair morphological difference, forensically informative nucleotide sequencing (FINS) exhibited unambiguous variation among the examined felids and is suggested for differentiating biological samples of closely related wild felids to avoid any false identification of species in illicit trade.About:

jModelTest: Phylogenetic Model Averaging
TL;DR: jModelTest is a new program for the statistical selection of models of nucleotide substitution based on "Phyml" that implements 5 different selection strategies, including "hierarchical and dynamical likelihood ratio tests," the "Akaike information criterion", the "Bayesian information criterion," and a "decision-theoretic performance-based" approach.

Dynamics of mitochondrial dna evolution in animals: amplification and sequencing with conserved primers
Thomas D. Kocher,W.K. Thomas,Axel Meyer,Scott V. Edwards,Svante Pääbo,Francis X. Villablanca,Allan C. Wilson +6 more
TL;DR: The polymerase chain reaction is used to amplify homologous segments of mtDNA from more than 100 animal species, including mammals, birds, amphibians, fishes, and some invertebrates, and the unexpectedly wide taxonomic utility of these primers offers opportunities for phylogenetic and population research.
