DNA metabarcoding of littoral hard-bottom communities: high diversity and database gaps revealed by two molecular markers
Biodiversity assessment of marine hard-bottom communities is hindered by the high diversity and size-ranges of the organisms present. We developed a DNA metabarcoding protocol for biodiversity characterization of structurally complex natural marine hard-bottom communities. We used two molecular mark...
