Metabarcoding of ichthyoplankton communities associated with a highly dynamic shelf region of the southwest Indian Ocean.

Drifting fish eggs and larvae (ichthyoplankton) can be identified to species using DNA metabarcoding, thus allowing for post hoc community analyses at a high taxonomic resolution.
