Consider, for example, the technique called DNA bar coding, which is based on using short fragments of mitochondrial gene CO1 to uniquely identify and document animal species (Savolainen ...

We address this research gap by examining the attributes of an exemplar global knowledge commons: The DNA barcode commons. DNA barcodes are short, standardized gene regions that can be used to ...

Research utilizing DNA barcodes and citizen science images has mapped the spread of the biological control agent Orphanostigma haemorrhoidalis, used against the invasive shrub Lantana camara.

The Earth is filled with species diversity, much of which remains unknown. While scientists have identified between two and three million species, many more remain undiscovered, often referred to ...

We want to demonstrate how we can gain a better overview of biological dark matter by using DNA barcoding." Emily Hartop, Associate Professor DNA barcoding, in this case so-called 'megabarcoding ...

As potential developments in the automation of DNA fingerprinting threaten to introduce vulnerabilities in the system, researchers develop ‘genetic barcodes’ to prevent sample tampering. DNA ...

We hear from Paul Hebert, the biologist behind the International Barcode of Life project – a global effort to classify the entire world’s species according to their DNA. Bristol researchers ...

Bacteremia, or blood poisoning, occurs when bacteria overcome the body's immune defenses. Bacteremia can worsen into sepsis, a condition that accounts for more than 1 in 3 hospital deaths per year.
