Assessing the value of DNA barcodes for molecular phylogenetics: effect of increased taxon sampling in lepidoptera.
BACKGROUND: A common perception is that DNA barcode datamatrices have limited phylogenetic signal due to the small number of characters available per taxon. However, another school of thought suggests that the massively increased taxon sampling afforded through the use of DNA barcodes may considerab...
