The impact of genetic diversity on the accuracy of DNA barcoding to identify species: A study on the genus Phellodendron

Abstract DNA barcoding is widely used in species identification, but there is considerable controversy regarding the extent of sampling in research methods. Some scholars have proposed that this small sample size underestimates the intraspecific genetic diversity, which would impact on the accuracy...
