Phylogenetic relationships within the polyopisthocotylean monogeneans (Platyhelminthes) inferred from partial 28S rDNA sequences

R Jovelin, JL Justine - International journal for Parasitology, 2001 - Elsevier
Recent studies based on molecular data (18S rDNA and partial 28S rDNA) and morphology
did not resolve a terminal polytomy within the Polyopisthocotylea. Here, we have used …
