Abstract: Plant DNA barcoding is primarily used for species identification, and applications in taxonomy, conservation, ecology, forensics, and certification of herbal products. This technique follows the process of DNA extraction, amplification, and sequencing without the requirement of taxonomic expertise, making it easier, faster, and reliable than conventional approaches. The Barcode of Life Data (BOLD) system was developed by the Center for Biodiversity Genomics to store and analyse the data generated from massive barcodes. This system holds 13 million barcodes in organised projects, and represents 72,000 plant species. This article discusses the features of the BOLD system v.4, with a brief review on plant DNA barcoding. Anisomeles malabarica of Lamiaceae family, is been selected as the model plant, and its barcode data are documented in the workbench of BOLD. A unique DOI 10.5883/DS-AMBC22 and accession numbers from GenBank were generated for the barcodes in the public portal for reference and retrieval.
