DNA barcodes: recent successes and future
... groupings created using mtDNA can differ from the true species groupings (Hurst and Jiggins, 2005). To bring greater reliability to the identification of species using short DNA sequences, a move should be made to supplement the mtDNA-based barcode with nuclear barcodes. This would reduce the proble ...

Principles of population viability analysis (PVA)

If it is likely that a population is closed, then immigration and emigration rates must be estimated because they may have a strong influence on the long-term viability of population ...
