Abstract

DNA barcoding has been proposed as a promising tool for the rapid species identification in a wide range of animal taxa.In this study,the ~648 bp mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit Ⅰ(COⅠ) gene of 61 individuals from 32 bird species was analyzed.By applying three methods(distance based method,monophyly-based method,and diagnostic characters),our result shows that COⅠ is able to distinguish all species studied.The present study validated the effectiveness of barcoding for the identification of birds.
