www.iBarcode.org: web tools for sequence analysis

cloudIn 16 june 2009 BMC Bioinformatics researchers from University of Guelph report on web platform for DNA barcode analysis, www.iBarcode.org. The site works with aligned barcode files in standard .fas format, such as produced by MEGA or BOLD. Registration is not required; the site keeps track of files you have uploaded.

According to authors Singer and Hajibabaei, iBarcode is designed to “allow the user to manage their barcode datasets, cull out non-unique sequences, identify haplotypes within a species, and examine the within- to between-species divergences.” iBarcode provides several clever, easy-to-use tools and I look forward to further refinements.
