Observation Bias in Metabarcoding

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT DNA metabarcoding is subject to observation bias associated with PCR and sequencing, which can result in observed read proportions differing from actual species proportions in the DNA extract. Here, we amplify and sequence a mock community of known composition containing marine fishes and cetaceans using four different primer sets and a ...

Multi‐Tool Marine Metabarcoding Bioassessment for Baselining and Monitoring Species and Communities in Kelp Habitats

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The astonishing biological diversity found in Californian kelp forests requires efficient and robust monitoring tools to better understand ecological trends and mitigate against loss or disruption of ecosystem services due to human pressure and climate changes.

Conserved Sequence Identification Within Large Genomic Datasets Using ‘Unikseq2’: Application in Environmental DNA Assay Development

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Identification of conserved genomic sequences and their utilisation as anchor points for clade detection and/or characterisation is a mainstay in ecological studies. For environmental DNA (eDNA) assays, effective processing of large genomic datasets is crucial for reliable species detection in biodiversity monitoring.
