A total crapshoot? Evaluating bioinformatic decisions in animal diet metabarcoding analyses

Abstract Metabarcoding studies provide a powerful approach to estimate the diversity and abundance of organisms in mixed communities in nature. While strategies exist for optimizing sample and sequence library preparation, best practices for bioinformatic processing of amplicon sequence data are lac...
