Validating a web application’s use of genetic distance to determine helminth species boundaries and aid in identification
Built on a helminth-specific database, ABIapp serves as a pioneering tool for helminth researchers, offering an invaluable resource for determining species boundaries and aiding in species identification of helminths. The availability of ABIapp to the community of helminth researchers may further enhance research in the field of helminthology. To enhance ABIapp's accuracy and utility, the database will be updated annually.
