Journal ArticleDOI
Insect Mitochondrial Genomics: Implications for Evolution and Phylogeny
TL;DR: Insects are model systems for studying aberrant mt genomes, including truncated tRNAs and multichromosomal genomes, and greater integration of nuclear and mt genomic studies is necessary to further the understanding of insect genomic evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome sequences of the human body louse and its primary endosymbiont provide insights into the permanent parasitic lifestyle

TL;DR: The genome sequences of the body louse and its primary bacterial endosymbiont Candidatus Riesia pediculicola are presented, providing a reference for studies of holometabolous insects.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Genomic Perspective on the Shortcomings of Mitochondrial DNA for “Barcoding” Identification
TL;DR: The natural history of mtDNA is reviewed and problems for barcoding which are particularly associated with mtDNA and inheritance are discussed, including reduced effective population size, maternal inheritance, recombination, inconsistent mutation rate, heteroplasmy, and compounding evolutionary processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The complete mitochondrial genome of the tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta, (Insecta: Lepidoptera: Sphingidae), and an examination of mitochondrial gene variability within butterflies and moths.
TL;DR: Comparisons of gene variability across the order suggest that the mitochondrial genes most frequently used in phylogenetic analysis of the Lepidoptera, cox1 and cox2, are amongst the least variable genes in the genome and phylogenetic resolution could be improved by using alternative, higher variability genes such as nad2, nad3, n ad4 and nad5.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrative taxonomy, or iterative taxonomy?
David K. Yeates,Ainsley E. Seago,Leigh A. Nelson,Stephen L. Cameron,Leo Joseph,John W.H. Trueman,John W.H. Trueman +6 more
TL;DR: The term ‘iterative taxonomy’ is proposed for current practice that treats species boundaries as hypotheses to be tested with new evidence, and a search for biological or evolutionary explanations for discordant evidence can be used to distinguish between competing species boundary hypotheses.
