Metabarcoding of soil environmental DNA to estimate plant diversity globally

Metabarcoding of soil environmental DNA to estimate plant diversity globally

IntroductionTraditional approaches to collecting large-scale biodiversity data pose huge logistical and technical challenges. We aimed to assess how a comparatively simple method based on sequencing environmental DNA (eDNA) characterises global variation in plant diversity and community composition...
