Improving sustainable use of genetic resources in biodiversity archives

Abstract: Tissue sample databases housed in biodiversity archives represent a vast trove of genetic resources, and these tissues are often destructively subsampled and provided to researchers for DNA extractions and subsequent sequencing. While obtaining a sufficient quantity of DNA for downstream applications is vital for these researchers, it is also important to preserve tissue resources for future use given that the original material is destructively and consumptively sampled with each use. It is therefore necessary… Show more

“…Genetic resources deposited in museum collections are critically important for scientific research because they allow access to samples that would be difficult or even impossible to obtain today ( Schäffer et al, 2017 ; Tuschhoff et al, 2020 ). Disputes over the validity of a given taxon can be rapidly solved with comparisons using sequence data from types ( Chakrabarty, 2010 ).…”
