Taxonomic reliability of DNA sequences in public sequence databases: a fungal perspective.
BACKGROUND: DNA sequences are increasingly seen as one of the primary information sources for species identification in many organism groups. Such approaches, popularly known as barcoding, are underpinned by the assumption that the reference databases used for comparison are sufficiently complete an...
