Genome profiling (GP) method based classification of insects: congruence with that of classical phenotype-based one.
<h4>Background</h4>Ribosomal RNAs have been widely used for identification and classification of species, and have produced data giving new insights into phylogenetic relationships. Recently, multilocus genotyping and even whole genome sequencing-based technologies have been adopted in a...
