DNA barcoding has transformed the fields of ecology, evolution, and conservation by
providing a rapid and effective tool for species identification. The growth of DNA barcodes as …

In the last decades, the demand for molecular tools for authenticating and tracing agri-food
products has significantly increased. Food safety and quality have gained an increased …

Taxonomic identification of biological materials can be achieved through DNA barcoding,
where an unknown “barcode” sequence is compared to a reference database. In many …

Pollen DNA metabarcoding—marker‐based genetic identification of potentially mixed‐
species pollen samples—has applications across a variety of fields. While basic species …

Background Paphiopedilum is the largest genus of slipper orchids. Previous studies showed
that the phylogenetic relationships of this genus are not well resolved, and sparse taxon …

DNA barcoding has greatly accelerated the pace of specimen identification to the species
level, as well as species delineation. Whereas the application of DNA barcoding to the …

For over two decades, cache attacks have been shown to pose a significant risk to the
security of computer systems. In particular, a large number of works show that cache attacks …

Monitoring biodiversity is a growing and pressing challenge, particularly as climate change
threatens species with extinction and leads to widespread shifts in plant distribution and …

Building DNA barcode databases for plants has historically been ad hoc, and often with a
relatively narrow taxonomic focus. To realize the full potential of DNA barcoding for plants …

The potential value of DNA barcoding for the identification of medicinal plants and
authentication of traded plant materials has been widely recognized; however, a number of …
