Effective identification of species using short DNA fragments (DNA barcoding and DNA
metabarcoding) requires reliable sequence reference libraries of known taxa. Both …

Environmental DNA (eDNA) originates from cellular material shed by organisms into aquatic
or terrestrial environments and can be sampled and monitored using metabarcoding …

Classification of the tremendous diversity of ray-finned fishes (Actinopterygii) began with the
designation of taxonomic groups on the basis of morphological similarity. Starting in the late …

Although DNA metabarcoding is an attractive approach for monitoring biodiversity, it is often
difficult to detect all the species present in a bulk sample. In particular, sequence recovery …

DNA barcoding and metabarcoding provide new avenues for investigating biological
systems. These techniques require well‐curated reference libraries with extensive coverage …

DNA barcoding based on a fragment of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene is
widely applied in species identification and biodiversity studies. The aim of this study was to …

The number of seafood species sold on Western markets is constantly growing and many
unconventional species are sold in ethnic food outlets. In this work, 68 ethnic seafood …

New techniques for the species-level sorting of millions of specimens are needed in order to
accelerate species discovery, determine how many species live on earth, and develop …

Studies involving fish eggs and larvae date back to the end of the nineteenth century. Since
then, studies with ichthyoplankton have proved to be an essential tool, generating …

DNA barcoding is a promising technique for species identification using a short
mitochondrial DNA sequence of cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) gene. In the present study …
