Deskripsi
Methods for detecting and identifying insects or insect fragments in food provides essential data to underpin regulatory responses aimed at protecting consumers. Complete mitochondrial genomes have demonstrated utility for high-resolution phylogenetic discrimination of closely related species; thus, high-quality references of complete mitochondrial genomes are valuable for applied detection and identification of insect species in food products.
