The problem of omnivory: A synthesis on omnivory and DNA metabarcoding [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, 2021 Dietary analysis using DNA metabarcoding is a powerful tool that is increasingly being used to further our knowledge of trophic interactions in highly complex food webs but is not without limitations.

Influence of DNA extraction kits on freshwater fungal DNA metabarcoding [PDF]
PeerJ, 2022 BACKGROUND: Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is a common technique for efficient biodiversity monitoring, especially of microbes. Recently, the usefulness of aquatic eDNA in monitoring the diversity of both terrestrial and aquatic fungi has been ...

The power of metabarcoding: Can we improve bioassessment and biodiversity surveys of stream macroinvertebrate communities? [PDF]
Metabarcoding and Metagenomics, 2021 Most stream bioassessment and biodiversity surveys are currently based on morphological identification of communities. However, DNA metabarcoding is emerging as a fast and cost-effective alternative for species identification. We compared both methods in

Evaluating the performance of DNA metabarcoding for assessment of zooplankton communities in Western Lake Superior using multiple markers [PDF]
Metabarcoding and Metagenomics, 2021 For DNA metabarcoding to attain its potential as a community assessment tool, we need to better understand its performance versus traditional morphological identification and work to address any remaining performance gaps in incorporating DNA ...
