Leveraging target enrichment and genome skimming (Hyb-Seq) of herbarium collections to unlock timber DNA barcoding. [PDF]
Appl Plant SciAbstract Premise DNA barcoding for timber species identification requires comprehensive reference datasets, informative DNA barcodes, and cost‐effective protocols. We developed a workflow leveraging Hyb‐Seq (target capture sequencing and genome skimming) to address these challenges, and we tested it on four genera from the mahogany family (Meliaceae ...
