The present study reports preliminary barcode library of Noctuoid moths from Northern most Western Ghats, Maharashtra, India. A total of 98 sequences belonging to 43 species are reported.Sampling Description
Study Extent
The study was conducted in the Northernmost Western GhatsSampling
The moths were sampled using spread sheet method or by collecting the moths attracted to light near human habitationMethod steps
- Sample Collection: moths were collected using spread sheet method or the ones attracted to light near human habitation.
- Tissue Sampling: legs from each moth were removed and stored in absolute alcohol for molecular analysis.
- Molecular analysis: Genomic DNA was isolated using standard commercial kits. isolated DNA was amplified by polymerase chain reaction for COI gene. The amplicon was cleaned up and cycle sequenced for forward and reverse sequences. Sequencing for forward and reverse sequence was done in ABI 3130 sequencer.
- Bioinformatics: The .phd sequencer files were edited and converted to .FASTA files in BioEdit.
- Sequence Submission: The edited FASTA files were uploaded on the Barcode of Life Data system (www.boldsystem.org) and later on, upon confirmation of quality were submitted to GenBank.
Taxonomic Coverages
