Abstract:

The primary goal for this project is to bring awareness to the medicinal properties of these six aforementioned species that have not yet been genetically barcoded. Through the barcoding and sequencing of the genomes we will be able to map out the phylogenetic tree of the organisms, which will aid in understanding their background and their possible connection to each other.
