Phylogeny and systematics of deep-sea sea pens (Anthozoa: Octocorallia: Pennatulacea)
Molecular methods have been used for the first time to determine the phylogeny of families, genera and species within the Pennatulacea (sea pens). Variation in ND2 and mtMutS mitochondrial protein-coding genes proved adequate to resolve phylogenetic relationships among pennatulacean families. The ge...
