DNA Barcoding
Paul Herbert proposes the idea for DNA barcoding, a method of species identification that helps resolve key issues surrounding global biodiversity. The University of Guelph has worked and partnered with 26 countries and recently hosted a global conference to further develop the discovery.
The Ontarion publishes independent, student-produced news, opinion, and commentary for University of Guelph students so that they can make informed decisions in their lives. To do this, The Ontarion provides learning opportunities and training in journalism, media production, leadership, board governance, and other aspects of nonprofit news.
The Ontarion is the University of Guelph’s independent student newspaper. It began in 1951 as part of the Ontario Agricultural College and then began to represent the entire University of Guelph once it amalgamated in 1964. The Ontarion incorporated in May 1970 as The Ontarion, Inc., a not-for-profit corporation registered with the province of Ontario.
