Taxonomic assignments using mlCOI barcode

The file contains the taxonomic assignments for reads obtained using mlCOI barcode across all stations for each sample source, DNA type (Extracellular, Bulk or Pooled DNA) and PCR annealing temperature (46 °C, 50 °C or, TD). Ecological Group (EG) for each taxa according AMBI is detailed and number of reads transformed into relative proportions shown. Presence/absence of taxa found using traditional identification at each station is represented by x.
