Limits of nuclear ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences as species barcodes for Fungi.
In PNAS, the work by Schoch et al. (1) proposed nuclear ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences as the sole universal barcode for fungi. The work by Schoch et al. (1) stated that “the proposal will satisfy most fungal biologists but not all” (1). I am among those biologists who are not so satisfied and not really surprised either, because ITS has been the most widely used mark...
متن کاملNuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region as a universal DNA barcode marker for Fungi.
Six DNA regions were evaluated as potential DNA barcodes for Fungi, the second largest kingdom of eukaryotic life, by a multinational, multilaboratory consortium. The region of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 used as the animal barcode was excluded as a potential marker, because it is difficult to amplify in fungi, often includes large introns, and can be insufficiently variabl...
متن کاملPCR-based sensitive detection of medicinal fungi Hericium species from ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences.
Based on phylogenetic analysis of rDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences, a pair of specific primers were designed for differentiating the Chinese traditional medicine Hericium species from other mushrooms by PCR. PCR was performed, with total DNAs as a template at an annealing temperature of 52-57 degrees C. Positive amplification was obtained from H. erinaceus with all DNA templates...
متن کاملPhylogenetic relationships in Lupinus (Fabaceae: Papilionoideae) based on internal transcribed spacer sequences (ITS) of nuclear ribosomal DNA.
Internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences of nuclear ribosomal DNA from 44 taxa of the genus Lupinus and five outgroup taxa were used for phylogenetic analysis. Lupinus appears as a strongly supported monophyletic genus, which is unambiguously part of the Genisteae. The lupines are distributed into five main clades in general accordance with their geographical origin. In the Old World, almost...
متن کاملExtensive Pyrosequencing Reveals Frequent Intra-Genomic Variations of Internal Transcribed Spacer Regions of Nuclear Ribosomal DNA
BACKGROUND Internal transcribed spacer of nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA) is already one of the most popular phylogenetic and DNA barcoding markers. However, the existence of its multiple copies has complicated such usage and a detailed characterization of intra-genomic variations is critical to address such concerns. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS In this study, we used sequence-tagged pyroseq...
