It will use Lepidoptera as model organisms; an apt taxon as many species groups represent cases of taxonomic instability due to uncertainty around species boundaries.<\/p>\n<p>The project will utilize specimens and DNA extractions stored at the Centre for Biodiversity Genomics in Guelph, Canada from past projects exploring patterns of divergence in Eurasian and Holarctic Lepidoptera (e.g.,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.0084518\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hausmann et al. 2013<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.0115774\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Huemer et al. 2014<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.0206668\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2018<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.11646\/zootaxa.3749.1.1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Landry et al. 2013<\/a>, and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/sysbio\/syw044\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mutanen et al. 2016<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>The project is led by Dr. Marko Mutanen, University of Oulu.
