DNA barcoding of fungal specimens using PacBio long‐read high‐throughput sequencing

Molecular Ecology Resources, 2022
Molecular methods are increasingly used to identify species that lack conspicuous macro‐ or micromorphological characters. Taxonomic and ecological research teams barcode large numbers of collected voucher specimens annually.

DNA Barcoding Unveils New Species of the Sexually Dimorphic Genus Anteon Jurine (Hymenoptera, Dryinidae) from China

Insects, 2023
Species of Anteon Jurine, 1807 are a large group of parasitoids attacking leafhoppers, which are important insect pests. Despite their great potential in pest biological control, the taxonomy and biology of these parasitoids are far from clear.

DNA Barcodes for Accurate Identification of Selected Medicinal Plants (Caryophyllales): Toward Barcoding Flowering Plants of the United Arab Emirates

Diversity, 2022
The need for herbal medicinal plants is steadily increasing. Hence, the accurate identification of plant material has become vital for safe usage, avoiding adulteration, and medicinal plant trading.

A DNA barcoding approach in the study of tardigrades

Journal of Limnology, 2013
DNA barcoding is a technique proposed by Hebert and co-workers in 2003 for discriminating species through analysis of a single gene barcode locus. It aims to obtain a better taxonomic resolution than that achieved through morphological studies, and to ...

DNA Barcoding Study of Representative Thymus Species in Bulgaria

Plants, 2022
We present a study on the taxonomy of eleven Thymus species, belonging to two sections and occurring naturally in Bulgaria. Four DNA barcoding markers—matK, rbcL, trnH-psbA and ITS—were applied to discriminate the species and to reveal their phylogenetic

jMOTU and Taxonerator: Turning DNA Barcode Sequences into Annotated Operational Taxonomic Units [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
DNA barcoding and other DNA sequence-based techniques for investigating and estimating biodiversity require explicit methods for associating individual sequences with taxa, as it is at the taxon level that biodiversity is assessed. For many projects, the bioinformatic analyses required pose problems for laboratories whose prime expertise is not in ...

Barcoding blood meals: New vertebrate-specific primer sets for assigning taxonomic identities to host DNA from mosquito blood meals

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018
The transmission dynamics of mosquito-vectored pathogens are, in part, mediated by mosquito host-feeding patterns. These patterns are elucidated using blood meal analysis, a collection of serological and molecular techniques that determine the taxonomic ...

Revealing the hyperdiverse mite fauna of subarctic Canada through DNA barcoding. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Although mites are one of the most abundant and diverse groups of arthropods, they are rarely targeted for detailed biodiversity surveys due to taxonomic constraints.

Adding DNA barcoding to stream monitoring protocols - What's the additional value and congruence between morphological and molecular identification approaches?

PLoS ONE, 2021
Although aquatic macroinvertebrates and freshwater fishes are important indicators for freshwater quality assessments, the morphological identification to species-level is often impossible and thus especially in many invertebrate taxa not mandatory ...

A comprehensive DNA barcode library for the looper moths (Lepidoptera: Geometridae) of British Columbia, Canada. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
The construction of comprehensive reference libraries is essential to foster the development of DNA barcoding as a tool for monitoring biodiversity and detecting invasive species.
