TL;DR: The 2-locus combination of rbcL+matK will provide a universal framework for the routine use of DNA sequence data to identify specimens and contribute toward the discovery of overlooked species of land plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple Multilocus DNA Barcodes from the Plastid Genome Discriminate Plant Species Equally Well
Aron J. Fazekas,Kevin S. Burgess,Prasad Kesanakurti,Sean W. Graham,Steven G. Newmaster,Brian C. Husband,Diana M. Percy,Mehrdad Hajibabaei,Spencer C. H. Barrett +8 more
TL;DR: Resolution to the contentious debate on plant barcoding should involve increased attention to practical issues related to the ease of sequence recovery, global alignability, and marker redundancy in multilocus plant DNA barc coding systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Are plant species inherently harder to discriminate than animal species using DNA barcoding markers
Aron J. Fazekas,Prasad Kesanakurti,Kevin S. Burgess,Diana M. Percy,Sean W. Graham,Spencer C. H. Barrett,Steven G. Newmaster,Mehrdad Hajibabaei,Brian C. Husband +8 more
TL;DR: The results using common metrics demonstrate that the number of species supported as monophyletic using barcoding markers is higher in animals than plants, even after controlling for the amount of parsimony‐informative information per species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Discriminating plant species in a local temperate flora using the rbcL+matK DNA barcode
Kevin S. Burgess,Aron J. Fazekas,Prasad Kesanakurti,Sean W. Graham,Brian C. Husband,Steven G. Newmaster,Diana M. Percy,Mehrdad Hajibabaei,Spencer C. H. Barrett +8 more
TL;DR: Barcoding efforts have begun to focus on building the barcode library for land plants, with the consensus of a two‐locus DNA barcode (rbcL+matK) by the CBOL Plant Working Group (2009).
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial patterns of plant diversity below‐ground as revealed by DNA barcoding
Prasad Kesanakurti,Aron J. Fazekas,Kevin S. Burgess,Diana M. Percy,Steven G. Newmaster,Sean W. Graham,Spencer C. H. Barrett,Mehrdad Hajibabaei,Brian C. Husband +8 more
TL;DR: Insight is provided into the role of environmental filtering and competitive interactions in the organization of plant diversity below‐ground, and the utility of barcoding for the identification of plant roots is demonstrated.
