Description

Nudibranch (mostly Glaucus spp.) specimens were examined for molecular analyses, with collection locations, museum vouchers and GenBank accession numbers for rRNA-16S and mtCOI.

The following species were collected from various oceanic gyres: Glaucus atlanticus, Glaucus marginatus, Glaucus bennettae, Glaucus thompsoni, Glaucus mcfarlanei, Hermosita hakunamatata, Learchis poica, Favorinus elenalexarium.

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Automated DNA Sequencer

Acronym: Automated Sequencer

Generic Description:

General term for a laboratory instrument used for deciphering the order of bases in a strand of DNA. Sanger sequencers detect fluorescence from different dyes that are used to identify the A, C, G, and T extension reactions. Contemporary or Pyrosequencer methods are based on detecting the activity of DNA polymerase (a DNA synthesizing enzyme) with another chemoluminescent enzyme. Essentially, the method allows sequencing of a single strand of DNA by synthesizing the complementary strand along it, one base pair at a time, and detecting which base was actually added at each step.
