Abstract
Identifying dead insect larvae by morphology is mostly challenging but often required in ecological studies, which entails a molecular method. In this study, we developed a protocol of Cytochrome Oxidase c Subunit I (COI) DNA barcoding that could quickly identify larval tephritid flies in a Tibetan alpine meadow. The protocol includes two major operations. The first is to build up a comprehensive reference library after identifying adults of...
