MOTUs, Morphology, and Biodiversity Estimation : A Case Study Using Nematodes of the Suborder Criconematina and a Conserved 18S DNA Barcode

DNA barcodes are increasingly used to provide an estimate of biodiversity for small, cryptic organisms like nematodes. Nucleotide sequences generated by the barcoding process are often grouped, based on similarity, into molecular operational taxonomic units (MOTUs). In order to get a better understa...
