Morphological traits and machine learning for genetic lineage prediction of two reef-building corals.

Integrating multiple lines of evidence that support molecular taxonomy analysis has proven to be a robust method for species delimitation in scleractinian corals. However, morphology often conflicts with genetic approaches due to high phenotypic plasticity and convergence. Understanding morphologica...
