MicroBinfie Podcast, 107 Systematics and naming of prokaryotes in the era of sequencing
Released on May 11, 2023
Back to episode listSystematics: Introduction to SeqCode
Today, we are discussing systematics, with a specific focus on SeqCode, a nomenclatural code for prokaryotes described from sequence data. We are joined by co-authors of the recent publication on this topic:
- Marike Palmer: Postdoctoral researcher in the School of Life Sciences at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
- Miguel Rodriguez: Assistant Professor of Bioinformatics at the University of Innsbruck, specializing in the Department of Microbiology and the Digital Science Center (DiSC).
SeqCode represents a significant development in the classification and naming of prokaryotes based on sequence data, offering a modern approach to microbial taxonomy.
