Sergio Vargas R. commented on Dirk Steinke's group 'Marine Barcoding'"Hi Lyndell,
the same came to my mind when I first heard about double inheritance... there are heaps of freeky beasts out there!
As for slimy, I mean with too much mucus (mainly polysacharids). If you are extracting using spin columns and you tend…"
Sergio Vargas R. commented on Dirk Steinke's group 'Marine Barcoding'"Hi Lyndell,
it seems you are amplifying two copies of the mtDNA, this is, if I'm not wrong, likely in molluscs because you can have both paternally and maternally inherited mtDNA coexisting in the same organism. I think this is tissue specific…"
Sergio Vargas R. commented on Dirk Steinke's group 'Marine Barcoding'"Hi Lyndell,
could you elaborate a bit on you sequencing problems? it may be easier to help you if provide more info.

by Folmer fragment I mean the standard barcoding fragment.

Sergio Vargas R. commented on Gert Woerheide's group 'Sponge Barcoding'"Hi Giulia,
if you want to barcode your 5 sponge, you'r kind of stucked to the "Folmer" fragment. If you want to do something else, well you could check the literature (?) Sponge specific primers for the Folmer region are rather hard…"

Frederic, what marker do you guys use for barcoding…"
