Investigating variability in microbial community composition in replicate environmental DNA samples down lake sediment cores.
Lake sediments are natural archives that accumulate information on biological communities and their surrounding catchments. Paleolimnology has traditionally focussed on identifying fossilized organisms to reconstruct past environments. In the last decade, the application of molecular methodologies h...
