  2. CONACYT has committed US$3.8 million for the Mexican Barcode of Life network (MexBOL) over 5 years - 3 nodes with lab capacity #barcode09 12:41 PM Nov 12th from web
  3. Anybody have pictures to post from the taco lunch in the bullring? #barcode09 12:40 PM Nov 12th from web

  5. Most BLAST searches for fungi find mixtures, not named cultures or specimens - should we name the mixtures in a consistent way? #barcode09 10:02 AM Nov 12th from web
  6. Tom Bruns on fungal mixtures in soils, guts, plant tissue are "environmental sequences" - no specimens, just subtrates with stuff #barcode09 9:58 AM Nov 12th from web
  7. Next gen sequencing session at #barcode09 - lots of presented ecological projects are untangling mixtures with 454 - foodwebs from barcodes 9:57 AM Nov 12th from web
  8. Nobody parties like the barcoders - lost a bus for two hours but tequila was waiting for them at dinner - salsa dancing til 12 #barcode09 7:14 AM Nov 12th from web
  9. Lots easier to find fossil DNA than whole fossils in Ice Age sediments; "Ice Core Genetics" now enables community reconstruction #barcode09 8:28 AM Nov 11th from web
  10. Eske Willerslev - Sediments in Siberian permafrost have enough DNA to permit identification, community reconstruction #barcode09 8:17 AM Nov 11th from web
  11. Alex Smith - barcoding forest insect-plant food webs increased taxon list by 25%, reveal new host relationships #barcode09 8:05 AM Nov 11th from web
  12. Labor strike in Mexico City, threat to disrupt traffic so Barcode buses rolled by 7am - big internet cafe before morning session #barcode09 8:03 AM Nov 11th from web
  13. @pjd Yvonne Linton plans to publish a 'barcode data release' paper, prob'y PLoS ONE in the coming months - not out yet #barcode09 2:57 PM Nov 10th from web in reply to pjd
  14. Barcodes recovered from mosquitoes as old as 93 years - museum collections could cover 68% of all species #barcode09 1:45 PM Nov 10th from web
  15. Yvonne showed picture of crown Prince William pipetting and barcoding in NHM London - "barcode recruits needed" #barcode09 1:44 PM Nov 10th from web

  18. @kejames Yeah - we're next door in pathogens session - can you hold down the noise over there in plants? #barcode09 1:16 PM Nov 10th from web in reply to kejames
  19. Panel discussion - student involvement doesn't raise project efficiency but increases recruitment, adds big education impact #barcode09 9:49 AM Nov 10th from web
  20. Wilkinson - pyrosequencing to analyze species of pollen collected by individual bees - high gender difference in pollen selection #barcode09 9:47 AM Nov 10th from web
