Plant DNA (meta)barcoding I

Session

11:00 AM, Tuesday 3 Sep 2024 (2 hours)
Where:
Estação das Docas - Theater 2
Standard plant barcodes have enabled powerful insights into patterns of species diversity and ecological processes, and have been widely applied to address practical challenges such as authentication of consumer products, the detection of invasive species, and the identification of protected species in trade. In addition to these standard barcoding approaches (e.g. rbcL, matK, trnH-psbA, trnL, ITS), a substantial body of work is underway to explore supplementary methods of plant barcoding. This includes genome skimming to recover complete plastid genomes, and exploration of the potential to incorporate nuclear loci into plant barcoding approaches. This symposium is designed to bring together the state of the art for plant barcoding – showcasing impactful science using standard barcodes, and exploring where wider genomic coverage is appropriate. The symposium will finish with a discussion session focusing on the future of plant DNA barcoding.
