摘要: Despite the ecological importance of scleractinian corals and sponges in tropical waters, few DNA markers are available that appropriate for phylogenetic population genetic approaches. To date, most frequently used evolutionary level studies these tax a nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacers (rDNA ITS J ITS2). These have been useful contributed considerably to our understanding evolution, biogeography -to some extent - structure marine corals. However, need single-copy exists. In this review which such applied summarised, their advantages disadvantages evaluated.
