两栖爬行动物总体形态较保守且存在趋同现象，给传统分类带来了困难，仅仅使用形态学的鉴定标准极大地影响了对其物种多样性的正确评估。DNA条形码技术由于采用数字化形式，使样本鉴定过程能够实现自动化和标准化，突破了对传统形态经验的过度依赖，不受生物体发育阶段的限制，可弥补传统形态学鉴定方法的不足。DNA条形码技术与传统形态学分类方法相结合不仅可以快速、准确的对物种进行鉴定和分类，还可能发现许多潜在的物种。
作为全球范围的两栖爬行动物DNA条形码“COLDCODE”计划发起团队之一，…

3月21日，科技日报记者从中国农业科学院植物保护研究所获悉，该所作物病原生物功能基因组研究创新团队联合国内其他科研单位，构建了国际首个双生病毒-植物-昆虫数据库。该数据库提供了最完整的双生病毒、寄主植物、传毒介体、病毒-植物-昆虫互作信息，并提供多种在线工具，可实现相关文献同步更新。相关研究成果在线发表于《分子植物》。
双生病毒是全球范围内对植物危害最严重的病原物之一，有520余种，可通过烟粉虱、叶蝉和蚜虫等传播，侵染棉花、番茄及瓜果等多种重要经济作物，造成严重的经济损失。
该数据库可完成病毒、寄主信息的完整搜索与下载，为双生病毒的后续研究奠定了重要基础。数据库将病毒-植物-…
