DNA barcoding: the CBOL perspective Freek T. Bakker Nationaal Herbarium Nederland Wageningen University branch http://www.barcoding.si.edu
DNA barcoding “Using molecular data as species diagnostics isn’t new, but global standardization and scale of implementation are”
1.7 × 106 described species 10 barcodes per species ~20× 106 barcodes of 650bp each 10 × 106 more eukaryote species to go ~100 × 106 more barcodes of 650bp each In total this would be ~65,000,000,000 bp This is twice the total amount of bp currently in GenBank! To be completed within the decade (Hajibabaei & al., 2005) How many DNA barcodes do we need, or, what’s ahead?
CBOL Member Organisations (May 2006) • 100+ Member organizations, 40 countries • 30 Member organizations from 20 developing countries
Coordination/Facilitation of Bottom-Up activities Be a catalyst for DNA barcode activities globally Respond to applied user communities Minimalisim (organizational) – build on existing activities rather than constructing new ones Standardization, cost-effectiveness of generating DNA barcodes Global participation CBOL’s underlying principles
CBOL Structure Member Organizations Executive Committee Secretariat Office Working Groups Scientific Advisory Board
Database: Designing/constructing the Barcode Section of GenBank DNA: Protocols for formalin-fixed and old museum specimens; advice to new labs, LIMS for dissemination Data Analysis: Beyond phenetic methods; population genetics perspective Plants: Identify gene region(s) for barcoding CBOL’s Working Groups

Global initiatives to create reference library Enable users to adopt barcode ID systems All-species barcode database will: Strengthen specimen/species data Improve collections, tissue/DNA resources Attract users to barcoding for specimen IDs Regional Working Groups Small Steering Committees CBOL’s campaigns
First barcoding publications in 2002 Cold Spring Harbor planning workshops in 2003 Sloan Foundation grant, launch in May 2004 Secretariat opens at Smithsonian, September 2004 First international conference February 2005 GenBank’s BARCODE section end 2005 Molecular Ecology Notes DNA barcode section Sloan Foundation Grant renewal March 2006 CBOL Milestones
Now, an international affiliation of: 100+ Members Org’s, 40 countries, 6 continents Natural history museums, biodiversity organizations Users: e.g., government agencies Private sector biotech companies, database providers CBOL Milestones
Four Working Groups FishBOL and All Birds Initiatives International Network for Barcoding Invasive and Pest Species (INBIPS) Created Steering Committees for: Tephritid fruit flies (agricultural pests) Mosquitoes (disease vectors) African bushmeat (endangered vertebrates) Current and Planned Projects
Engaging collections, researchers and users Expand membership to 200 organizations Double participation in developing countries Four regional meetings in 2006 to expand awareness, assess needs, start networks in: Southern and eastern Africa South America Southern Asia Working with BioNET, development agencies Second International Barcode Conference, Southeast Asia, February 2007 CBOL 2008
South Africa and Kenya involved from beginning of CBOL in May 2004 Southern African regional workshop April 2006 Eastern and Western regional workshops under discussion African involvement in global campaigns (e.g., birds, fish, mosquitos, fruit flies) Outreach to Africa
Raise awareness Explore potential applications in the region Assess greatest needs and opportunities in the region (for instance, curation collections) Identify highest priorities, construct national and regional action plans Start intra-regional networks and intercontinental partnerships Goals of Regional Meetings
In-country training Research training fellowships Infrastructure improvement: Lab equipment acquisition Collections Information technology Other forms of capacity-building identified during regional meetings Possible Follow-On Activities
