Incidence and attributes of chimeric COI and 18S sequences derived from nematode-infected arthropods

Jacopo D’Ercole, Robin Floyd, Sean W. J. Prosser, Saeideh Jafarpour, Paul D. N. Hebert

This study examines chimeric sequences in nematode-infected arthropods using nanopore sequencing, finding higher incidence in 18S than COI and linking chimera formation to DNA stability and sequence conservation.
