Estimating predation rates from molecular gut content analysis
Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 23, Issue 5, Page 1023-1033, July 2023., 2023 Abstract Several methods have been published to estimate per capita predation rates from molecular gut content analysis relying on intuitive understanding of predation, but none have been formally derived.
