An empirical DNA-based identification of morphologically similar snappers (Lutjanus campechanus, Lutjanus purpureus) using a versatile bioinformatics workflow for the discovery and analysis of informative single-nucleotide polymorphisms
The commercially important species Lutjanus campechanus (Northern/Gulf red snapper) and Lutjanus purpureus (Southern/Caribbean red snapper) are the protagonists of a decade’s long taxonomic debate over their species delimitation, due in part to partial habitat overlap, extensive morphological simila...
