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 (

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.Paradigm shift: PCR‐free methods reveal 6–15‐fold higher arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal abundance than metabarcoding, exposing systematic underestimation across decades of research. Predictive power: AM fungal abundance serves as a community‐level trait that predicts crop yield under drought conditions.

Metabarcoding From Microbes to Mammals: Comprehensive Bioassessment on a Global Scale
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Global biodiversity loss is unprecedented, and threats to existing biodiversity are growing. Given pervasive global change, a major challenge facing resource managers is a lack of scalable tools to rapidly and consistently measure Earth's biodiversity ...

Metabarcoding a diverse arthropod mock community
Molecular Ecology Resources, 2019 Abstract Although DNA metabarcoding is an attractive approach for monitoring biodiversity, it is often difficult to detect all the species present in a bulk sample. In particular, sequence recovery for a given species depends on its biomass and mitome copy number as well as the primer set employed for PCR.

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.Abstract Background Evidence on the 16S metabarcoding of supragingival, subgingival, and salivary microbiomes in periodontal health remains limited. We aimed to analyze the diversity and potential of machine‐learning models of supragingival, subgingival, and salivary microbiomes in periodontal health. Methods A total of 848 samples (supragingival = 210;

Environmental DNA Metabarcoding Detects Predators at Higher Rates Than Electrofishing
Environmental DNAThere are numerous downsides and risks associated with electrofishing; hence, environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is becoming increasingly common in aquatic ecological studies.
