Bioinformatic challenges for DNA metabarcoding of plants and animals [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, 2012 AbstractAlmost all empirical studies in ecology have to identify the species involved in the ecological process under examination. DNA metabarcoding, which couples the principles of DNA barcoding with next generation sequencing technology, provides an opportunity to easily produce large amounts of data on biodiversity.

Non‐specific amplification compromises environmental DNA metabarcoding with COI [PDF]
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Abstract Metabarcoding extra‐organismal DNA from environmental samples is now a key technique in aquatic biomonitoring and ecosystem health assessment. Of critical consideration when designing experiments, and especially so when developing community standards and legislative frameworks, is the choice of genetic marker and primer set.

Influence of DNA extraction kits on freshwater fungal DNA metabarcoding [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 AbstractBackgroundEnvironmental 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 suggested.

DNA metabarcoding of forensic mycological samples [PDF]
Egyptian Journal of Forensic Sciences, 2021 AbstractBackgroundDNA metabarcoding and massive parallel sequencing are valuable molecular tools for the characterization of environmental samples. In forensic sciences, the analysis of the sample’s fungal population can be highly informative for the estimation of post-mortem interval, the ascertainment of deposition time, the identification of the ...

Ichthyoplankton DNA metabarcoding: Challenges and perspectives [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, 2021 DNA metabarcoding has been widely used to access and monitor species. However, several challenges remain open for its mainstream application in ecological studies, particularly when dealing with a quantitative approach. In a From the Cover article in this issue of Molecular Ecology, Mariac et al. (2021) report species‐level ichthyoplankton dynamics for

Unearthing soil arthropod diversity through DNA metabarcoding
PeerJ, 2022 DNA metabarcoding has the potential to greatly advance understanding of soil biodiversity, but this approach has seen limited application for the most abundant and species-rich group of soil fauna–the arthropods. This study begins to address this gap by comparing information on species composition recovered from metabarcoding two types of bulk samples (

Towards exhaustive community ecology via
Molecular Ecology, 2023 AbstractExhaustive biodiversity data, covering all the taxa in an environment, would be fundamental to understand how global changes influence organisms living at different trophic levels, and to evaluate impacts on interspecific interactions. Molecular approaches such as DNA metabarcoding are boosting our ability to perform biodiversity inventories ...
