Integrating DNA barcode data and taxonomic practice: Determination, discovery, and description

BioEssays, 2010
AbstractDNA barcodes, like traditional sources of taxonomic information, are potentially powerful heuristics in the identification of described species but require mindful analytical interpretation. The role of DNA barcoding in generating hypotheses of new taxa in need of formal taxonomic treatment is discussed, and it is emphasized that the recursive ...

DNA barcoding: a taxonomic point of view

Journal of the North American Benthological Society, 2011
AbstractA taxonomic perspective of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) barcoding is presented here with respect to its use within the freshwater science community. The goals and methods of DNA barcoding and the criticisms leveled at the procedure by the taxonomic community are explained.

DNA Barcodes in Taxonomic Descriptions

This chapter discusses methods for incorporating DNA barcode information into formal taxonomic descriptions. We first review what a formal description entails and then discuss previous attempts to incorporate barcode information into taxonomic descriptions. Several computer programs are listed that extract diagnostics from DNA barcode data. Finally, we

TAXONOMIC ASSESSMENT OF CURCULIGO ORCHIOIDES USING matK AND rbcL DNA BARCODES

SABRAO Journal of Breeding and Genetics, 2022
Curculigo orchioides is most commonly used as an imperative medicinal plant in Vietnam. The plant roots are mainly used to treat sexual dysfunction, back pain, arthritis, nephritis, jaundice, and infertility. Given the high market demand in the herbal market, C. orchioides traders commonly adulterate with other similar plants for illegitimate benefits.

DNA barcoding of Cuban freshwater fishes: evidence for cryptic species and taxonomic conflicts

Molecular Ecology Resources, 2010
AbstractDespite ongoing efforts to protect species and ecosystems in Cuba, habitat degradation, overuse and introduction of alien species have posed serious challenges to native freshwater fish species. In spite of the accumulated knowledge on the systematics of this freshwater ichthyofauna, recent results suggested that we are far from having a ...

e-DNA Meta-Barcoding: From NGS Raw Data to Taxonomic Profiling

2014
In recent years, thanks to the essential support provided by the Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies, Metagenomics is enabling the direct access to the taxonomic and functional composition of mixed microbial communities living in any environmental niche, without the prerequisite to isolate or culture the single organisms.

DNA Barcoding Procedures for Taxonomical and Phylogenetic Studies in Marine Animals: Porifera as a Case Study

2022
DNA barcoding is a versatile approach that has revolutionized taxonomy and other akin topics in biology and ecology, due to its simplicity and relatively costless procedures. The method consists in the production of one or a few amplicons from informative genetic regions via Sanger sequencing. These markers are selected because they tend to evolve at a

DNA barcoding markers: A comprehensive review and taxonomic classification across species

Computational Biology and Chemistry
DNA barcoding has revolutionized species identification and biodiversity assessment by employing short, standardized genetic sequences as molecular markers. Since its inception by Hebert in 2003, it has become a cornerstone of taxonomy, ecology, conservation, agriculture, and medicine.

Taxonomic assessment of Lumbricidae (Oligochaeta) earthworm genera using DNA barcodes

European Journal of Soil Biology, 2012
The family Lumbricidae accounts for the most abundant earthworms in grasslands and agricultural ecosystems in the Paleartic region. Therefore, they are commonly used as model organisms in studies of soil ecology, biodiversity, biogeography, evolution, conservation, soil contamination and ecotoxicology.

DNA barcoding of the ichthyofauna of Pánuco–Tamesí complex: Evidence for taxonomic conflicts in some groups

Mitochondrial DNA, 2012
The Pánuco-Tamesí complex in eastern Mexico is globally recognized as an important ecoregion due to its high level of endemism. In this study, DNA barcodes were generated for 152 individuals of 31 species. Additionally, 170 DNA barcodes for the related species available in the Barcode of Life Database (BOLD) system were included to test the ability of ...
