The multiple applications of DNA barcodes in avian evolutionary studies

Abstract: DNA barcodes of birds are currently available for 41% of known species and for many different geographic areas; therefore, they are a rich data source to answer evolutionary questions. We review studies that have used DNA barcodes to investigate evolutionary processes in birds using diverse approaches. We also review studies that have investigated species in depth where taxonomy and DNA barcodes present inconsistencies. Species that showed low genetic interspecific divergence and lack of reciprocal monophyly e… Show more

“…This type of analysis contributes to clarifying the underlying genetics of adaptive phenotypes in natural populations (Höglung, 2009). In birds, genetic molecular data have been analyzed to assess the action of natural selection mainly in association with geographic isolation, as this factor can affect the evolution of organisms, as has been documented in different bird species (Cheviron and Brumfield 2009;Kerr 2011;Ribeiro et al 2011;Barreira et al 2016). However, no major studies have been published on this issue for Chilean birds, except those that have analyzed the variation among species to assess evidence of signatures of selection on the mitochondrial genome based on the complete genome sequences (Cerasale et al 2012;Ramos et al 2018).…”

“…Moreover, strong mating preferences for conspecific versus heterospecific ornamentation are typically reported (Figure ) . The great majority of bird species have a mitochondrial genotype that varies little within species but that is distinctly different between species . Moreover, the transition between species‐typical mitochondrial type very often coincides with a transition in ornament type (Figure ).…”

“…The generation of large datasets of standardized DNA barcodes for focal habitats and geographic regions is also enabling other lines of enquiry, integrating phylogeography, biogeography, speciation, and molecular evolution (Barreira et al 2016;Mitterboeck et al 2016). Barreira et al (2016) review the multiple avian studies that have gone beyond specimen identification and analyzed the evolution of birds using DNA barcodes.…”

“…Barreira et al (2016) review the multiple avian studies that have gone beyond specimen identification and analyzed the evolution of birds using DNA barcodes. Birds are an excellent model for the study of evolution because their taxonomy and systematics are very well known, and around 60% of bird species have already been DNA barcoded.…”
