Enhancing metabarcoding of freshwater biotic communities: A new online tool for primer selection and exploring data from 14 primer pairs

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 4, July–August 2024.
We used water samples from natural systems in Canada to create an eDNA metabarcoding dataset with 14 primer pairs that were evaluated in silico, in vitro (five mock communities), and in vivo (water samples from aquaria). The dataset was used to evaluate our new free, user‐friendly online tool (SNIPe), created to derive subsets of informative, cost ...
