Assessing the Value of Natural History Collections and Addressing Issues Regarding Long-Term Growth and Care (2014, background): “…for future research pertaining to societal issues such as biodiversity, extinctions (local and global), invasive species, emerging zoonoses, climate change, and environmental degradation (Suarez and Tsutsui 2004, Winker 2004, 2005, Wandeler et al. 2007, Mares 2009, Rowe et al. 2011, Anderson 2012).”
Current progress in DNA barcoding and future implications for entomology (2011, background): “This progress in the barcoding of old specimens increases the value of museum collections as a source of genetic diversity information that is relevant to ecology, evolutionary biology, population genetics and conservation biology (Wandeler et al. 2007).”
The impact of global climate change on genetic diversity within populations and species (2013, background): “2011), museum collections (Wandeler et al. 2007; B alint et al. 2012; Rubidge et al. 2012) or monitoring programmes using cryobanking (Lermen et al.”
A universal DNA mini-barcode for biodiversity analysis (2008, background): “food products) often prevents the recovery of PCR fragments longer than 200 bp, impeding barcode recovery [7-9].”
