Reassessment of the mitochondrial 12S-rRNA gene for DNA barcoding of museum specimens of shelled marine gastropods from Japan [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2021
DNA barcoding is an effective and powerful tool for taxonomic identification and thus very useful for biodiversity monitoring. This study investigated the usefulness of the mitochondrial 12S-rRNA gene for the DNA barcoding of shelled marine gastropods ...

DNA barcode‐based delineation of putative species: efficient start for taxonomic workflows [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, 2014
AbstractThe analysis of DNA barcode sequences with varying techniques for cluster recognition provides an efficient approach for recognizing putative species (operational taxonomic units, OTUs). This approach accelerates and improves taxonomic workflows by exposing cryptic species and decreasing the risk of synonymy. This study tested the congruence of

DNA barcoding approach to characterize microalgae isolated from freshwater systems in Ecuador

open access: yesNeotropical Biodiversity, 2021
The use of suitable DNA barcodes and the generation of databases with reference sequences have been considered a promissory approach for the identification of Chlorophyta and Cyanophyta microalgae.

Plant DNA Barcodes, Taxonomic Management, and Species Discovery in Tropical Forests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
DNA barcodes have great potential for species identification and taxonomic discovery in tropical forests. This use of DNA barcodes requires a reference DNA library of known taxa with which to match DNA from unidentified specimens. At an even more basic level, it presupposes that the species in the regional species pool have Latin binomials. This is not

Potential efficacy of mitochondrial genes for animal DNA barcoding: a case study using eutherian mammals

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2011
Background A well-informed choice of genetic locus is central to the efficacy of DNA barcoding. Current DNA barcoding in animals involves the use of the 5' half of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase 1 gene (CO1) to diagnose and delimit species. However,

Integrated Taxonomy Reveals Hidden Diversity in Northern Australian Fishes: A New Species of Seamoth (Genus Pegasus). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Fishes are one of the most intensively studied marine taxonomic groups yet cryptic species are still being discovered. An integrated taxonomic approach is used herein to delineate and describe a new cryptic seamoth (genus Pegasus) from what was ...

The species identification problem in mirids (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) highlighted by DNA barcoding and species delimitation studies

open access: yesThe European Zoological Journal, 2020
Due to the difficulties associated with detecting and correctly identifying mirids, developing an accurate species identification approach is crucial, especially for potential harmful species.

Taxonomic, DNA Barcoding and Phylogenetic Reassessment of the Egyptian Ephedra L. (Ephedraceae) [PDF]

open access: yesCatrina: The International Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2018
This study attempts to carry out a critical revision for the genus Ephedra in Egypt based on morpholo-gical characters for leaf, stem and flower. DNA sequencing data used for the first time for DNA barcoding of the family Ephedraceae in Egypt. One chloroplast marker-intergenic spacer trn-H/psb-A and another nuclear Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS ...

Inferring taxonomic placement from DNA barcoding aiding in discovery of new taxa

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Abstract Predicting the taxonomic affiliation of DNA sequences collected from biological samples is a fundamental step in biodiversity assessment. This task is performed by leveraging existing databases containing reference DNA sequences endowed with a taxonomic identification.
