%X This chapter describes procedures for the use of DNA sequence data to obtain and compare taxonomic identification using the public databases GenBank and Barcode of Life Data System (BOLD). The chapter begins by describing procedures used to prepare quality sequences for uploading into GenBank and BOLD. Next, steps used to query the DNA sequences against the public databases are described using GenBank BLAST and BOLD identification engines. Interpretation guidelines for the taxonomic identification assignments are presented. Finally, a procedure for evaluating the accuracy and reliability of sequences from GenBank and BOLD is provided.
