Barcoding diatoms: evaluation of the V4 subregion on the 18S rRNA gene, including new primers and protocols (2011, background): “The ideal barcode marker (1) consists of a short sequence that can be easily amplified and sequenced in one read following a standardised laboratory protocol, (2) is flanked by a conserved region in which universal primers can be placed, and (3) has the power to resolve organisms at species level (e”
Exploiting generic platform technologies for the detection and identification of plant pathogens (2008, background): “DNA barcoding in an academic setting has two aims: firstly to assign unknown individuals to species, and secondly to enhance the discovery of new species (Hebert et al. 2003a; Stoeckle 2003; Blaxter 2003, 2004).”
Plant DNA barcoding: from gene to genome (2015, background): “The greater discriminatory power of ITS over plastid regions at low taxonomic levels has been widely studied leading to it also being suggested as a plant barcode (Stoeckle, 2003; Kress et al., 2005; Sass et al., 2007), especially in parasitic plants which offer less resolution from plastid barcodes”
DNA barcoding and taxonomy in Diptera: a tale of high intraspecific variability and low identification success. (2006, background): “For example, we find that Aedes and Anopheles mosquitoes identify relatively well based on COI and expect the same for species samples lacking large numbers of closely related species (Armstrong and Ball, 2005; Moritz and Cicero, 2004; Sperling, 2003; Stoeckle, 2003; Summerbell et al., 2005).”
DNA Barcoding: Error Rates Based on Comprehensive Sampling (2005, background): “]. Therefore, a stated second goal of DNA barcoding is to facilitate the species-discovery process [”
Myth of the molecule: DNA barcodes for species cannot replace morphology for identification and classification (2004, unknown): “…these signiﬁcant challenges and existing literature suggesting that the method of DNA barcodes is unsound, claims that the technique has been validated are still being published (Hebert et al., 2003b; Stoeckle et al., 2003; Stoeckle, 2003; Whitﬁeld, 2003; including many references at the website).”
ABGD, Automatic Barcode Gap Discovery for primary species delimitation (2012, methodology): “Accordingly, DNA barcodes can be used as an identiﬁcation tool, shortcutting the difﬁculties of a morphologically based identiﬁcation (Stoeckle 2003; Blaxter 2004; Janzen et al. 2005), especially for environmental studies (Valentini et al. 2009).”
Review and Interpretation of Trends in DNA Barcoding (2019, background): “Three organizational meetings sponsored by the Sloan Foundation at the Banbury Center at Cold Spring Harbor and seminal publications that year (Hebert et al., 2003a,b; Stoeckle, 2003) christened DNA barcoding and launched the program that would globalize its application.”
The promise of DNA barcoding for taxonomy. (2005, background): “Two meetings at Cold Spring Harbor during 2003 clarified plans for action (Stoeckle, 2003), and more meetings have followed.”
Identification of Birds through DNA Barcodes (2004, background): “This work could represent a first step toward a DNA barcode system for all animal and plant life, an initiative with potentially widespread scientific and practical benefits (Stoeckle 2003; Wilson 2003; Blaxter 2004; Janzen 2004).”
Comment on "Identifying spiders through DNA barcodes" (2005, background): “There are at least two reasons (Besansky et al. 2003; Hebert et al. 2003b, 2004b; Mallet and Willmott 2003; Scotland et al. 2003a; Stoeckle 2003; Tautz et al. 2003; Atkinson 2004; Moritz and Cicero 2004).”
CO1 phylogenies in diploblasts and the 'Barcoding of Life' — are we sequencing a suboptimal partition? (2006, background): “In addition, CO1 is currently in the focus of special interest: its 5′ partition is used for the ‘Barcoding of Life’ initiative (Hebert et al. 2003; Stoeckle 2003 ).”
DNA barcoding in land plants: evaluation of rbcL in a multigene tiered approach (2006, background): “Using data from GenBank, they used the BLAST algorithm to test the ability of rbcL as well as various combinations of the nuclear ribosomal ITS and 5.8S regions to make accurate identifications.”
Females do count: Documenting Chironomidae (Diptera) species diversity using DNA barcoding (2010, background): “An acknowledged advantage of DNA barcoding is the possibility to easily associate different life stages of the same species (Blaxter 2004; Ekrem et al. 2007; Stoeckle 2003).”
Towards integrative taxonomy (2005, background): “The need for simple and reliable identification tools helps solve the recent quarrels over ‘DNA barcoding’ (e.g. Baker et al ., 2003b; Hebert et al ., 2003; Lipscomb, Platnick & Wheeler, 2003; Scotland et al ., 2003; Seberg et al ., 2003; Stoeckle, 2003; Tautz et al ., 2003; Blaxter, 2004; Gaston & ”
DNA barcodes for species identification of euphausiids (Euphausiacea, Crustacea) (2007, background): “Often called “DNA barcoding” (Stoeckle, 2003; Schindel and Miller, 2005), the use of DNA sequences is becoming commonplace to confirm species identifications for taxonomic, ecological and evolutionary studies (Savolainen et al., 2005).”
