DNA barcoding of Jatropha curcas
<p>"DNA barcoding involves sequencing a standard region of DNA to be used as a tool for rapid species identification. The cytochrome C oxidase gene (COXI) is widely accepted as the standard barcode for animals and currently there is no barcode for land plants. The Consortium for the Barcode of Life …

DNA barcoding of forensically important flies in the Western Cape
… is damaged. Molecular identification such as DNA barcoding has therefore become a popular method of identifying species. DNA barcoding characterises species by sequencing and analysing specific regions in the genome. This technique has been used to characterise species in various countries …

Development of Bioinformatic Tools and Procedures to Computationally Support DNA Barcoding
… nucleotide alignments as part of DNA barcoding and DNA metabarcoding. In addition, the existing barcode regions were investigated to discover if possible mini-barcodes could be used in order to improve identification in a wide range of plant species. The pipelines developed in the …

DNA barcoding e biodiversità molecolare: casi di studio nel settore ittico
… della cronaca sotto l intrigante termine di DNA barcoding . Un segmento di circa 650bp del gene della citocromo ossidasi I mitocondriale (COI) è stato proposto come miglior potenziale barcode, almeno per il regno animale, dove si è potuta verificarne l'efficacia in diversi taxa, e gran parte …

Scalable development of multiplexed microparticle technologies for optical single-cell barcoding
The biological complexity of an organism arises from the diversity and interaction of individual cells. Optical imaging techniques with single cell resolution have played an invaluable role in developing an understanding of cellular identity and function. However, current imaging techniques, …

Barcoding and eDNA metabarcoding of a rapidly changing Neotropical freshwater fish community
… methods (e.g. integrative taxonomy, DNA barcoding and other molecular diagnostic methods), associated with traditional taxonomic identification, are being increasingly implemented worldwide. Surprisingly, despite being a hugely biodiverse country, Brazil has not yet embraced these novel …

Deterministic Barcoding of Neuron Identities through Multicolor Fluorescent Markers in C. elegans
… at a single-cell resolution. Through multicolor barcoding of individual neurons, we distinguish different cell types in vivo, helping reconstruct parts of the C. elegans connectome. With this deterministic strategy, we hope to enable cell typing throughout development and advance the …

Barcoding tools to track development and function of stem cell constructs for biomedicine
… based on a system of inheritable genetic barcoding. Our system can deconvolute lineage mixtures, track growth dynamics and consequently probe biological phenomena. Importantly, our process preserves spatial integrity of the sample and thus quantifies both lineage dynamics and captures …

A multiplex platform based on cellular barcoding for measuring single cell drug susceptibility
Predicting individual patient response to cancer drugs has been challenging. As many anticancer drugs aim to modulate cell deaths or growth inhibition, a useful assay for drug susceptibility would require direct assessment of phenotypic changes to cells upon drug treatment, such as cell viability …

DNA Barcoding of Ayurvedic Herbal Supplements used for the Purported Treatment of COVID-19
… consistent with the label, this study used DNA barcoding to test nine different types of herbal supplements (amla, ashwagandha, cinnamon, ginger, guduchi, tribulus, tulsi, turmeric, and vacha) associated with the Ayurvedic treatment of respiratory symptoms. A total of 54 commercial Ayurvedic …

Assessing Subterranean Arthropod Diversity through COI Barcoding in Two Ecoregions of Southwestern Virginia, USA
Subterranean arthropod communities are important components of North American ecosystems, contributing numerous ecosystem services and essential food-web functions. Despite this, fundamental information about species diversity in these communities remains unknown, and their taxonomic composition …

Applications of DNA-barcoding in the identification and understanding of grass invasions in Southern Africa
… These grasses can be difficult to identify. DNA barcoding has been suggested as an alternative method of identifying grasses in the hope of facilitating identification of existing invaders and preventing future invasions. In this study a list of all known naturalised grasses in South Africa was …

Use of PCR Cloning Combined with DNA Barcoding to Identify Fish in a Mixed-Species Product
<p>DNA barcoding is a valuable tool for fish species identification by food regulators, however, it does not perform well when multiple species are present within the same food product. PCR cloning has high potential to be used in combination with DNA barcoding to overcome this challenge. The …

Real-Time PCR Combined with DNA Barcoding for the Authentication of Red Snapper (Lutjanus campechanus) Fillets
… rockfish, and other snapper species. DNA barcoding is typically used by regulatory agencies to detect seafood substitution; however, it is expensive and time-consuming. A rapid, real-time PCR assay targeting red snapper was developed previously for use in fisheries management; however, it …

DNA barcoding of forensically important blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) within the Western Cape of South Africa
… towards estimating post mortem interval. DNA barcoding can aid in the identification of unknown forensically relevant species, and this requires the comparison of DNA barcodes to reference data from known species. However, there is a lack of DNA barcode reference data of forensically relevant …

Illuminating Clonal Dynamics: Development and Use of a High-Throughput Cellular Barcoding System to Track Clonal Evolution
It is increasingly recognized that tracking the clonal dynamics of large populations is important in understanding aspects of cancer and stem cell biology. Attempts to track the contributions of individual cells to the clonality of large homogenous populations, however, have been constrained by …

Use of a Novel Combination of Multiplex PCR and DNA Barcoding in Assessing Authenticity of Ginseng Products
… the efficacy of a novel combination of DNA barcoding and multiplex PCR to identify species in ginseng supplements. A total of 50 commercial ginseng supplements containing either Panax ginseng, Panax quinquefolius, or Panax notoginseng were obtained from an online vendor. Two composite …

Determination of a robust metabolic barcoding model for chemotaxonomy in Aizoaceae species : expanding morphological and genetic understanding
The use of metabolic fingerprints as taxonomic markers is becoming more common. Many studies have found that by comparing the vast metabolic fingerprints of closely related species to each other, secondary metabolites tend to be unique to the samples of individual species and are identified in …

Contributions to the taxonomy of South African hermit crabs (Crustacea: Decapoda: Paguroidea) – integrating microCT scanning and barcoding
… tomography (µCT) visualisations, and molecular barcoding to add to, revise, and provide an updated listing of, the regional fauna. The first section of the thesis comprises four chapters, each giving a detailed account of a species either new to science, or to the region. The pagurid hermit crab …
