A new paper titlted ‘Identification of Rays through DNA Barcoding: An Application for Ecologists‘ investiges DNA barcoding and its use as a potentially powerful ecological tool to support and confirm species identifications and to highlight species complexities. DNA Barcoding is used to investigate tropical rays as part of the ecological study.
The paper involves Environment Institute member Corey Bradshaw as well as Florencia Cerutti-Pereyra (Charles Darwin University), Mark Meekan (Australian Institute of Marine Science), Nu-Wei Wei (Charles Darwin University), Owen O’Shea (Murdoch University), Chris Austin (School of Science Monash University Sunway Campus) and has been published in PLoS ONE.
