Bioinformatics is the interdisciplinary study of nucleic acid and protein
sequences, which has proven especially useful for genomics, gene expression, and
nematode diagnosis. Quality control of these sequences is essential, and bioinformatics
plays a crucial role in their processing for phylogenetic analysis. Skilled analysis is
particularly vital for molecular ecology and environmental DNA analysis, especially
when working with next-generation sequences. Furthermore, the utilization of an
online database and specialized software designed for the identification of nematode
species serves as valuable resources for a proper diagnosis of nematode-related issues.
In this chapter, we will explore the bioinformatics of Sanger sequencing, with an
emphasis on the phylogenetic study of nematodes and online species identification of
nematode species.
Keywords: Bioinformatics, DNA, Nematodes, Phylogeny, Sanger sequencing.
