DNA barcoding and the renaissance of taxonomy.
H ow limited (or not) is the dietary range of an animal species? How does that host specificity plot across major lineages of organisms? How does that affect the structure of ecological communities? These are major questions in ecology, especially for invertebrates, where they have major implications for academic questions, such as how many species of insects there are, and practical applicatio...
متن کاملThe promise of DNA barcoding for taxonomy.
DNA barcoding is a novel system designed to provide rapid, accurate, and automatable species identifications by using short, standardized gene regions as internal species tags. As a consequence, it will make the Linnaean taxonomic system more accessible, with benefits to ecologists, conservationists, and the diversity of agencies charged with the control of pests, invasive species, and food saf...

متن کاملThe unholy trinity: taxonomy, species delimitation and DNA barcoding.
Recent excitement over the development of an initiative to generate DNA sequences for all named species on the planet has in our opinion generated two major areas of contention as to how this 'DNA barcoding' initiative should proceed. It is critical that these two issues are clarified and resolved, before the use of DNA as a tool for taxonomy and species delimitation can be universalized. The f...
متن کاملDNA barcoding and taxonomy: dark taxa and dark texts
Both classical taxonomy and DNA barcoding are engaged in the task of digitizing the living world. Much of the taxonomic literature remains undigitized. The rise of open access publishing this century and the freeing of older literature from the shackles of copyright have greatly increased the online availability of taxonomic descriptions, but much of the literature of the mid- to late-twentieth...
