Increasing the digital repository of DNA barcoding sequences of sand flies (Psychodidae: Phlebotominae)

Abstract: Sand fly identification is complex because it depends on the expertise of the taxonomist. The females show subtle morphological differences and the occurrence of the species complexes are usual in this taxon. Therefore, a fragment of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene is used for taxon barcoding to resolve this kind of problem. This study incorporates barcode sequences, for the first time, for Evandromyia cortelezzii and Migonemyia migonei from Argentina. The nucleotide sequence divergences were est… Show more

“…DNA barcode technology uses relatively short but stable gene sequences to identify biological species by comparison. The COI gene has less deletions and insertions, which is conducive to designing universal primers and is the preferred target of DNA barcoding, with important applications in the identification and classification of unknown species [ 8 , 9 ].…”
