DNA barcoding is a useful tool in identifying species, biodiversity assessment, and revealing phylogenetic relationships of living organisms in the world. However, the DNA barcode data for leaf beetles in Vietnam is lacking. In this study, sixteen DNA sequences of 658 bp of COI gene from nine species (five genera; three subfamilies) of Chrysomelidae in Vietnam were (obtained). Intra- and inter-specific diversities, and phylogenetic relationships of these species were analyzed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
