DNA barcoding is a standardized approach to identifying plants and animals by minimal sequences of DNA, called DNA barcodes.
DNA barcode - short gene sequences taken from a standardized portion of the genome that is used to identify species
and this presentation gives much introducing about DNA barcodes developed for Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes.
Various barcoding genes which are evolutionary conserved.

• Consists of hidden language made up of series
vertical bars lines of varying width
• Used in identification by optical or laser scanner

7. How it all started in 2003
Propose a CO1-based (~650bp of the 5’ end)
global identification system of animals,
and show the success (96.4-100%) of assigning
test specimens to the correct phyla, order and species
(Lepidoptera from Guelph) through a CO1-profile.
98% of congeneric species in 11
animal phyla showed
>2% sequence divergence in CO1

Protein closely-related species.
Greater differences among species
Copy number. (100-10,000 )
Relatively few differences within species

18. • Discrimination
Barcoding regions must be different for each species. Ideally
you are looking for a single DNA locus which differs in each
species.
• Universality
Since barcoding protocols (typically) amplify a region of DNA
by PCR, you need primers that will amplify consistently.
• Robustness
Since barcoding protocols (typically) amplify a region of DNA
by PCR, also need to select a locus that amplifies reliably, and
sequences well.
19. % species discriminated
• ITS: 90.5%
• psbA-trnH: 60%
• matK: 33.3%
• ndhJ: 37.1%
• rpoB: 9.9%
• rpoC1:9.9%
• accD: 6.05 %
Nuclear non-coding
Plastid non-coding
Plastid coding
• accD, rpoB, rpoC1: variation too low for use as a single barcode
• matK and ndhF: more variable but with great variation of rate among
subgenera
• Non-coding regions (ITS and psbA-trnH spacer) performed better, but
required great manual effort for indel alignment
20. Based on recommendations by a barcoding consortium (Consortium for
the Barcode of Life, plant working group) the chloroplast genes rbcL and
matK universal plant barcodes.

24. Why Barcoding?
1)Works with fragments
2) Works for all stages of life
3)Unmasks look-alikes
4) Reduce ambiguity
25. 5) Expertise to go further
6)Democratize access
7)Opens the way for an electronic handheld field
guide, the life barcoder
8)Sprouts new leaves on the tree of life
9) Demonstrates the value of collection
10) Speed writing the life of encylcopedia(http://eol.org/)
26. How the DNA Barcoding done
Step Involved in it
Sample collection & recording
37. Current Norm: High throughput

Integrated DNA microchips Table-top microfluidic systems
39. Future in 20??
• Data in seconds to
minutes
• Pennies per sample
• Link to reference
database
• A taxonomic GPS
• Usable by non-
specialists
40. Advantage Of DNA barcoding
• Protection of Endangered Species ( Conservation)
• Tracking adulterations
• Identifying Agricultural pest
• Water quality testing
• Identification of all life stages, eggs, larvae, nymphs, pupa, adults
• Identification of fragments or products of organisms
• Identification of stomach contents, trace ecological food-chains
• Food control
• Customs control
• Invasive species control
• Disease vector control
• Police
• Agriculture
• Forestry
• Education
• Etc
41. Strength VS Weakness
• Alternative taxonomic
Identification tool
• Identification of new
species
• Work for all life stages
• Reveal undescribed
species
• No universal DNA
barcode region
• Difficult to resolve
recently diverged
species
• Identifies Inter-specific
genetic variation only
• Single approach
42. Conclusion
DNA barcoding has emerged and established
itself as a important tool for species-
identification and phylogenetics studies
it has proved useful in protecting Endangered
species, identifying agricultural pests and
disease vectors, tracking adulteration in
products and sustaining environment
