Rust HUBB

Rust HUBB contains 28S DNA sequences from thousands of rust species. Sequences have been verified, and come from vouchered herbarium specimens.

​

For details on methods and primers for 28S sequencing, see Aime & McTaggart 2020.

 

To use this tool, select the Rust HUBB button at the right.  Paste your 28S sequence into the box and blast.
