Abstract: Zooplankton community inventories are the basis of fisheries management for containing fish larvae and their preys; however, the visual identification of early-stage larvae (the “missing biomass”) is difficult and laborious. Here, eDNA metabarcoding was employed… read more here.

Abstract: DNA metabarcoding is widely used to determine wild animal diets, but whether this technique provides accurate, quantitative measurements is still under debate. To test our ability to accurately estimate the abundance of dietary items using… read more here.
