The development of three long universal nuclear protein-coding locus markers and their application to osteichthyan phylogenetics with nested PCR.

BACKGROUND: Universal nuclear protein-coding locus (NPCL) markers that are applicable across diverse taxa and show good phylogenetic discrimination have broad applications in molecular phylogenetic studies. For example, RAG1, a representative NPCL marker, has been successfully used to make phylogene...
