The problem of omnivory: A synthesis on omnivory and DNA metabarcoding [PDF]

, 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.

DNA metabarcoding quantifies the relative biomass of arthropod taxa in songbird diets: Validation with camera‐recorded diets

Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Ecological research is often hampered by the inability to quantify animal diets. Diet composition can be tracked through DNA metabarcoding of fecal samples, but whether (complex) diets can be quantitatively determined with metabarcoding is still debated ...

Persisting roadblocks in arthropod monitoring using non-destructive metabarcoding from collection media of passive traps [PDF]

PeerJ, 2023
Background Broad-scale monitoring of arthropods is often carried out with passive traps (e.g., Malaise traps) that can collect thousands of specimens per sample.

Proper environmental DNA metabarcoding data transformation reveals temporal stability of fish communities in a dendritic river system

Environmental DNA, 2021
Protecting freshwater biodiversity is considered an ultimate challenge but depends on reliable surveys of species distribution and abundance which eDNA metabarcoding (environmental DNA metabarcoding) may offer.

Endolichenic Fungal Community Analysis by Pure Culture Isolation and Metabarcoding: A Case Study of Parmotrema tinctorum

Mycobiology, 2022
Lichen is a symbiotic mutualism of mycobiont and photobiont that harbors diverse organisms including endolichenic fungi (ELF). Despite the taxonomic and ecological significance of ELF, no comparative investigation of an ELF community involving isolation ...

Mock community experiments can inform on the reliability of eDNA metabarcoding data: a case study on marine phytoplankton

Scientific Reports, 2023
Environmental DNA metabarcoding is increasingly implemented in biodiversity monitoring, including phytoplankton studies. Using 21 mock communities composed of seven unicellular diatom and dinoflagellate algae, assembled with different composition and ...

A Comparative Analyzing of Zooplankton Community Diversity in Surface Layer Water of Reservoir Via eDNA Metabarcoding and Microscopy

Diversity, 2022
We compared two sampling methods, eDNA metabarcoding and microscope identification (MSI), for the analysis of zooplankton diversity in reservoirs with its inflow and outflow streams. The dynamic patterns of Cladocera and Rotifera at different time points

Periphyton diversity in two different Antarctic lakes assessed using metabarcoding

, 2021
Antarctic lakes have generally simple periphyton communities when compared with those of lower latitudes. To date, assessment of microbial diversity in Antarctica has relied heavily on traditional direct observation and cultivation methods. In this study,
