Background<\/h3>\r\nBecause of their digital format, DNA barcode libraries allow the automation of specimen identification and species discovery. This automation is massively improving our ability to monitor, understand, and manage biodiversity with major scientific, forensic, epidemiological, and economic benefits. Because the development of a DNA barcode reference library for all species is both prohibitively expensive and logistically impossible for any nation, the benefits of creating an international partnership to assemble this resource were clear from the outset. In response, leaders of the biodiversity science community indicated their support in 2007 for an international research collaboration to achieve this goal. Three years later, the International Barcode of Life (iBOL) Project was formally activated.\r\n[\/column] \r\n\r\n[column width=\"eight\" place=\"last\"]
iBOL Phase I (2010\u20132015)<\/h3>\r\nResearchers from 25 nations activated the International Barcode of Life (iBOL) Project in 2010 to advance the construction of a DNA barcode library for multicellular eukaryotes. This research alliance demonstrated its competence by delivering DNA barcodes for 500,000 species by 2015. It also developed the informatics tools and the analytical protocols needed for DNA barcoding to emerge as a vital component of the global biosciences infrastructure. To permit this progress, nations involved in iBOL raised >$100 million from grant councils, government agencies, philanthropists, and the private sector. Most of these funds were expended within their source nation to support contributions to the project, but overall progress benefited greatly from $50 million provided by Canadian agencies to establish a core facility that provided essential sequencing and informatics support to the iBOL community.\r\n[\/column]","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-52","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ibol.org\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/52","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ibol.org\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ibol.org\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ibol.org\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ibol.org\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=52"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/ibol.org\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/52\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11202,"href":"https:\/\/ibol.org\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/52\/revisions\/11202"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ibol.org\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6202"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ibol.org\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=52"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
