KODY KRESKOWE DNA – MOŻLIWOŚCI I ZASTOSOWANIE

DNA barcoding is a technique which purpose is to facilitate the identification of all the organisms occurring in the world. It uses a short characteristic sequence for taxon and allows determining the species or type of the examined fragment of the organism, its larval form or fossil material. This technique has become a molecular tool supporting the traditional approach to taxonomy. Due to its efficienty and credibility of the obtained results, this technique has numerous applications in various fields. This work describes the possibilities and advantages of DNA barcoding in areas such as: science; industry; epidemiology; forensic entomology, where fast taxonomic analysis is extremely important. This technique has numerous applications. With the development of industry and science, the use of such taxonomic diagnostics systems will become more popular.
