Sediment DNA (sedDNA) analyses are rapidly emerging as powerful tools for the reconstruction of environmental and evolutionary change. While there are an increasing number of studies using molecular g
The accurate extraction of species-abundance information from DNA-based data (metabarcoding, metagenomics) could contribute usefully to the reconstruction of diets and quantitative foodwebs, the infer
Using flow-cytometry and metagenomics, coupled with an upstream pre-processing step to remove relic-DNA (DNA left behind from dead or dying cells) to determine the live population of the skin microbio
