Nanopore sequencing of nested nrDNA barcodes reliably identifies orchid bees (Euglossini, Apidae)

Andreas Kolter, Mabel Alvarado, David Ward Roubik, Thomas Eltz

This paper develops an adaptive-length nrDNA barcoding framework using Nanopore sequencing for orchid bees, achieving over 96% identification success with longer barcodes.
