Cooking small and large portions of “biodiversity‐soup”: Miniaturized DNA metabarcoding PCRs perform as good as large‐volume PCRs
Abstract DNA metabarcoding is a powerful tool to assess arthropod diversity in environmental bulk samples such as Malaise trap, pitfall trap, or hand net samples. While comparative performance tests for different extraction protocols, primers, and Taq polymerases have been made, the effect of differ...
