The BOLD Identification System (IDS) for ITS is the default identification tool for Fungal barcodes and accepts sequences from the Internal Transcribed Spacer Region
and  returns a species-level identification when possible. Further validation with independent genetic markers will be desirable in some forensic applications.

The BLAST algorithm is employed in place of the interal identification engine for ITS sequences.

There are very few ITS records on BOLD so most queries will likely not return a successful match.
