Molecular Phylogeny of Egyptian Sea Cucumbers As Predicted From 16s Mitochondrial rRNA Gene Sequences
Abstarct: A molecular phylogenetic analysis of some Holothuroidea was undertaken in order to clarify the systematics and taxonomy of this class in the red sea. DNA sequence for portions of 16S mitochondrial genes was obtained from 4 species of sea cucumbers. The resulting molecular phylogeny using m...
