Rapid dissemination of taxonomic discoveries based on DNA barcoding and morphology [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2016 The taxonomic impediment is characterized by dwindling classical taxonomic expertise, and slow pace of revisionary work, thus more rapid taxonomic assessments are needed.

Quantifying uncertainty of taxonomic placement in DNA barcoding and metabarcoding [PDF]
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2017 A crucial step in the use of DNA markers for biodiversity surveys is the assignment of Linnaean taxonomies (species, genus, etc.) to sequence reads. This allows the use of all the information known based on the taxonomic names. Taxonomic placement of DNA

Unbiased probabilistic taxonomic classification for DNA barcoding [PDF]
Bioinformatics, 2016 Abstract Motivation: When targeted to a barcoding region, high-throughput sequencing can be used to identify species or operational taxonomical units from environmental samples, and thus to study the diversity and structure of species communities.

DNA barcodes enable higher taxonomic assignments in the Acari [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 AbstractAlthough mites (Acari) are abundant in many terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems, their diversity is poorly understood. Since most mite species can be distinguished by variation in the DNA barcode region of cytochromecoxidase I, the Barcode Index Number (BIN) system provides a reliable species proxy that facilitates large-scale surveys.

DNA barcoding of plants: Selection of core markers for taxonomic groups
Plant Science Today, 2017 Plant identification is a crucial and routine taxonomic procedure in order to understand and conserve the biodiversity. Anthropogenic activity, pollution, deforestation, and exploitation of natural resources have been threatening to the plant biodiversity.

Defining operational taxonomic units using DNA barcode data [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2005 AbstractThe scale of diversity of life on this planet is a significant challenge for any scientific programme hoping to produce a complete catalogue, whatever means is used. For DNA barcoding studies, this difficulty is compounded by the realization that any chosen barcode sequence is not the gene ‘for’ speciation and that taxa have evolutionary ...

bioRxiv, 2020 The Odonata are considered among the most endangered freshwater faunal taxa. Their DNA-based monitoring relies on validated reference datasets that are often lacking or do not cover important biogeographical centres of diversification.

Marine nematode taxonomy in the DNA age: the present and future of molecular tools to access their biodiversity [PDF]
, 2010 Molecular taxonomy is one of the most promising yet challenging fields of biology. Molecular markers such as nuclear and mitochondrial genes are being used in a variety of studies surveying marine nematode taxa.

Tackling critical parameters in metazoan meta-barcoding experiments: a preliminary study based on coxI DNA barcode [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Nowadays DNA meta-barcoding is a powerful instrument capable of quickly discovering the biodiversity of an environmental sample by integrating the DNA barcoding approach with High Throughput Sequencing technologies.
