Formalin-Fixed Fish Larvae Could Be Effectively Identified by DNA Barcodes: A Case Study on Thousands of Specimens in South China Sea
Delimiting ichthyoplankton is fundamental work for monitoring the recruitment process and identifying the spawning and nursing grounds of fishes. Nevertheless, it is extremely difficult to identify the fish during the early stages at the species level based on morphological characters because of the...
