Datasets
Data on BOLD is curated by researchers and networks and grouped into datasets based on taxonomic, geographic, or thematic contexts.
Barcode Index Numbers
Given the vast diversity of species on the planet, far exceeding our capacity for manual description, the BIN was developed to cluster barcodes into putative species.
National Dashboards
DNA barcodes have become an important part of digital resources for biomonitoring at the national level. Data on BOLD is aggregated and summarized to track progress on a national level.
The Barcode of Life Data System
is an online platform that serves as a centralized repository for DNA barcode data. It enables researchers to store, access, and analyze DNA barcode sequences, facilitating biodiversity research and species identification efforts worldwide.
