ABSTRACT
The aim of the study is to evaluate the utility value of species identification of Triculinae based on COI gene.Triculinae-like samples were collected from different places in Fujian Province.After classification based on morphology characters,genomic DNA was extracted from collected samples.Then the segments of COI gene were amplified and sequenced for taxonomy annotation and phylogenetic analysis.Eleven samples were annotated as Gammatricula (identities:88.96％-97.82％),the other two were annotated as Tricula wumingensis (identity:87.08％) and Neotricula apart (identity:88.55％),respectively.In most cases (12 out of 13),there was a difference between results based on different classification methods on a genus level.The alignment of COI gene segment is sufficient for preliminary identification of Triclulinae at family level.However,it is need further study in species identification of Triclulinae at genus level.
