Deep-sea amphipods around cobalt-rich ferromanganese crusts: Taxonomic diversity and selection of candidate species for connectivity analysis.

The aim of this study was to select a candidate deep-sea amphipod species suitable for connectivity analyses in areas around cobalt-rich ferromanganese crusts (CRCs). We applied DNA barcoding based on the mitochondrial protein-coding gene, cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI), to specimens collected...
