DNA barcodes and reliable molecular identifications in a diverse group of invasive pests: lessons from <i>Bactrocera</i> fruit flies on variation across the COI gene, introgression, and standardization
2020-11-23
Abstract excerpt
The utility of a universal DNA ‘barcode’ fragment of 658 base pairs of the Cytochrome C Oxidase I (COI) gene for the recognition of all animal species has been a widely debated topic on theoretical and practical levels. Regardless of its challenges, large amounts of COI sequence data have been produced in the last two decades. To optimally use the data towards reliable species identification will require further...
