Use of DNA barcoding and its role in the plant species/varietal Identifica...Senthil Natesan
Plant DNA barcoding research is shifting beyond performance comparisons of different DNA regions towards practical applications. The main aim of DNA barcoding is to establish a shared community resource of DNA sequences that can be used for organismal identification and taxonomic clarification. This approach was successfully pioneered in animals using a portion of the cytochrome oxidase 1(CO1) mitochondrial gene. In plants, establishing a standardized DNA barcoding system has been more challenging. The studies on cucumis sp for the application of DNA barcode shows the possibility of discrimination at species level not the varietal level using the matK gene barcode. The phylogenetic tree constructed by using matK gene sequences clearly differentiated the species C. sativus and C. melo which will help for the future application in cucumis taxonomy and phylogeny studies
DNA barcoding was first proposed by Paul Herbert in 2003.
Basic Principle
Dna Barcoding is based on premise that a short standardized sequence can distinguish individuals of a specie because genetic variation between specie exceeds that within specie.
DNA barcoding is a technique in which species identification is performed by using DNA sequences from a small fragment of the genome, with the aim of contributing to a wide range of ecological and conservation studies in which traditional taxonomic identification is not practical.
DNA Barcoding: A simple way of identifying species by DNAmarkstoeckle
DNA barcoding makes it easier for experts and non- experts to identify species including from bits and pieces, immature forms, and those with many close look-alikes. Applications include health, environment, and education. High school students are using DNA barcoding to explore the world around them and make scientific discoveries. Like a giant Wikipedia entry, the multitude of researchers depositing DNA barcodes in GenBank are creating the first large-scale maps of the genetic structure of biodiversity.

DNA Fingerprinting for Taxonomy and Phylogeny.pptxsharanabasapppa
Deoxyribonucleic acid, a self-replicating material which is present in all living organisms as the main constituent of chromosomes.
DNA is made up of molecules called nucleotides. Each nucleotide contains a phosphate group, a sugar group and a nitrogen base.
The four types of nitrogen bases are adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G) and cytosine (C). The order of these bases is what determinesDNA's instructions, or genetic code.

BIOLOGICAL DATABASES :
A biological database is a large, organized body of persistent data, usually associated with computerized software designed to update, query, and retrieve components of the data stored within the system.
The chief objective of the development of a database is to organize data in a set of structured records to enable easy retrieval of information.
Example. A few popular databases are GenBank from NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information), SwissProt from the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics and PIR from the Protein Information Resource.
IMPORTANCE OF DATABASES :
1. Databases act as a store house of information.
2. Databases are used to store and organize data in such a way that information can be retrieved easily via a variety of search criteria.
3. It allows knowledge discovery, which refers to the identification of connections between pieces of information that were not known when the information was first entered. This facilitates the discovery of new biological insights from raw data.
4. Secondary databases have become the molecular biologist’s reference library over the past decade or so, providing a wealth of information on just about any gene or gene product that has been investigated by the research community.
5. It helps to solve cases where many users want to access the same entries of data.
6. Allows the indexing of data.
7. It helps to remove redundancy of data.
TYPES OF BIOLOGICAL DATABASES:
Biological databases are classified on
1. Based on content of biological data
2. Based on the nature of data.
1. BASED ON CONTENT OF BIOLOGICAL DATA :
Based on their contents, biological databases can be roughly divided into two categories:
1. Primary databases
2. Secondary databases

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
