DNA barcodes for biosecurity: invasive species identification

Abstract: Biosecurity encompasses protecting against any risk through 'biological harm', not least being the economic impact from the spread of pest insects. Molecular diagnostic tools provide valuable support for the rapid and accurate identification of morphologically indistinct alien species. However, these tools currently lack standardization. They are not conducive to adaptation by multiple sectors or countries, or to coping with changing pest priorities. The data presented here identifies DNA barcodes as a very pr… Show more

“…Tree-based methods were used to test the applicability of the seven loci and three combinations for species identification. The methods based on the clustering of individuals on phylogenetic trees have been suggested because statistical support can be measured through bootstrap and the resulting tree provides a visual representation of the affinities of the query sequence (Armstrong and Ball, 2005). The neighbor-joining (NJ) tree based on different barcodes was constructed using MEGA 4.0 (Tamura et al, 2007).…”

“…DNA barcoding has repeatedly been shown to be highly useful for the identification of invasive species (e.g., Armstrong and Ball, 2005;Saunders, 2009;Van de Wiel et al, 2009;Floyd et al, 2010). The method may also be used to distinguish closely related species or cryptic species complexes (e.g., Bickford et al, 2007;Dillman et al, 2010).…”

“…Missing data on relevant taxa may prevent identification, while the presence of a closely related congener but absence of a conspecific in the reference data set may lead to misidentification of the invader (Armstrong and Ball, 2005). Before reaching conclusions on the taxonomic status of seemingly divergent lineages, more data on genetic variation within the concerned taxon should be obtained from the original distribution range.…”

“…An alternative molecular marker, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), that is inherited independently from nuclear (microsatellite) markers has previously been employed for species identification of B. tryoni (Armstrong & Ball, 2005; Blacket, Semeraro, & Malipatil, 2012; Cameron et al., 2010). MtDNA DNA sequences are ideal for cumulative studies, as they can be unambiguously scored and can be built up into a spatial and temporal “library” as samples become available.…”
