Interrogating 1000 insect genomes for NUMTs: A risk assessment for estimates of species richness
The nuclear genomes of most animal species include NUMTs, segments of the mitogenome incorporated into their chromosomes. Although NUMT counts are known to vary greatly among species, there has been no comprehensive study of their frequency/attributes in the most diverse group of terrestrial organis...
