“…Most of the publications about identification of forensically important species focused on the analysis of the genes coding for the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) as summarized by Tuccia and co-workers (Tuccia, Giordani & Vanin, 2016) and cytochrome c oxidase subunit II (COII) (Sperling, Anderson & Hickey, 1994; Aly, Wen & Wang, 2013; Boehme, Amendt & Zehner, 2012; Malgorn & Coquoz, 1999; Wallman & Donnellan, 2001; Xiong et al, 2012). Tested target markers other than COI and COII were: Cytb (GilArriortua et al, 2013; GilArriortua et al, 2014; GilArriortua et al, 2015; Giraldo, Uribe & Lopez, 2011), ND1 (Giraldo, Uribe & Lopez, 2011), ND5 (Zaidi et al, 2011; Zehner et al, 2004), 28S rDNA (Gibson et al, 2011; McDonagh & Stevens, 2011; Stevens & Wall, 2001; Tourle, Downie & Villet, 2009), mt16S rDNA (Guo et al, 2014; Li et al, 2010), CAD (Gibson et al, 2011; Meiklejohn et al, 2013; Schnell SchĂŒhli, Barros de Carvalho & Wiegmann, 2007), EF-1α (Gibson et al, 2011; Schnell SchĂŒhli, Barros de Carvalho & Wiegmann, 2007; McDonagh, GarcĂa & Stevens, 2009), ITS1 (Zaidi et al, 2011), ITS2 (GilArriortua et al, 2014; GilArriortua et al, 2015; Zaidi et al, 2011; Ferreira et al, 2011; Nelson, Wallman & Dowton, 2008; Song, Wang & Liang, 2008; Yusseff-Vanegas & Agnarsson, 2017), PER (Guo et al, 2014) and Bicoid (Park et al, 2013). Analysis of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), in particular COI gene, seems to provide good species identification among Diptera, although a correct identification is still problematic for closely related species (Tourle, Downie & Villet, 2009; Harvey et al, 2008; Sonet et al, 2012).…”
