Mitochondrial Heteroplasmy and PCR Amplification Bias Lead to Wrong Species Delimitation with High Confidence in the South American and Antarctic Marine Bivalve <i>Aequiyoldia eightsii</i> Species Complex
The species delimitation of the marine bivalve species complex <i>Aequiyoldia eightsii</i> in South America and Antarctica is complicated by mitochondrial heteroplasmy and amplification bias in molecular barcoding. In this study, we compare different data sources (mitochondrial cytochrom...
