Cold Code: the global initiative to DNAbarcode amphibians and nonavian reptiles
Abstract DNA barcoding facilitates the identification of species and the estimation of biodiversity by using nucleotide sequences, usually from the mitochondrial genome. Most studies accomplish this task by using the gene encoding cytochrome oxidase subunit I ( COI Entrez COX1 ). Within this barcodi...
