Biological identifications through DNA barcodes.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 Feb 2003

Hebert Paul D N, Cywinska Alina, Ball Shelley L, deWaard Jeremy R

Abstract excerpt

Although much biological research depends upon species diagnoses, taxonomic expertise is collapsing. We are convinced that the sole prospect for a sustainable identification capability lies in the construction of systems that employ DNA sequences as taxon 'barcodes'. We establish that the mitochondrial gene cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) can serve as the core of a global bioidentification system for animals. First,...
