Comment by Stephane Boyer on August 14, 2011 at 1:41am: Hi all,

I am interested in the barcoding of environmental samples, historical or ancient DNA and molecular diet analyses.

Comment by Prasanna Kumar on May 27, 2011 at 3:37am: free floating hatched out egg masses was successfully barcoded for species delineation. will this work falls under scope of environmental barcoding?

Comment by Iloh Andrew Chibuzor on May 8, 2011 at 1:35pm: Thanks Mehrdad for the information

Comment by rebecca nakacwa on November 10, 2010 at 4:33am: l have been involved in barcoding of soil nematodes and l use them as bio-indicator for the environment

Comment by Ahmed Rahaman Ademolu on October 24, 2010 at 12:45pm: My special interest is related to the enviroment i.e bio indicators and pollinators diversity. I believe the group will be of great benefit for me.

Comment by Douglas Yu on August 24, 2010 at 9:20pm: Hi all,

I'm using the QIIME pipeline to analyse 454 reads of COI amplified from malaise trap samples. What are people using to (1) assign taxonomies (I'm using Munch et al.'s SAP for now) and (2) correct for homopolymer errors?

Comment by MOHAMMAD-MONZOOR on July 19, 2010 at 7:04pm: Having been involved in Phytoplankton and zooplankton diversity, distribution and inclusion as feral live feed of culturable fin-fish and shell fish species in Nigeria, my interest in the future barcoding of these organisms encourages me to ask for admission to the Environmental barcoding group. Prof. Hajibabaei, am I welcome into your group?
