Choice of DNA extraction method affects DNA metabarcoding of unsorted invertebrate bulk samples [PDF]
Metabarcoding and Metagenomics, 2018 Characterisation of freshwater benthic biodiversity using DNA metabarcoding may allow more cost-effective environmental assessments than the current morphological-based assessment methods. DNA metabarcoding methods where sorting or pre-sorting of samples

Categorization of species as native or nonnative using DNA sequence signatures without a complete reference library. [PDF]
, 2019 New genetic diagnostic approaches have greatly aided efforts to document global biodiversity and improve biosecurity. This is especially true for organismal groups in which species diversity has been underestimated historically due to difficulties ...

Foraging history of individual elephants using DNA metabarcoding
Royal Society Open Science, 2023 Individual animals should adjust diets according to food availability. We used DNA metabarcoding to construct individual-level dietary timeseries for elephants from two family groups in Kenya varying in habitat use, social position and reproductive status.

PCR replication in environmental DNA metabarcoding [PDF]
, 2020 Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is a common tool for measuring and cataloguing biodiversity, yet standard methodological approaches to generate metabarcoding data sets have yet to emerge, in part due to challenges understanding the biological and technical biases that affect eDNA profiles. Here, we explore how two experimental choices – depth of

Environmental DNA metabarcoding describes biodiversity across marine gradients
ICES Journal of Marine Science, 2023 Abstract In response to climate change, biodiversity patterns in the oceans are predicted to shift rapidly, thus increasing the need for efficient monitoring methods. Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding recently emerged as a potent and cost-effective candidate to answer this challenge.
