Applicability and perspectives for DNA barcoding of soil invertebrates

Belowground invertebrate communities are dominated by species-rich and very small microarthropods that require long handling times and high taxonomic expertise for species determination. Molecular based methods like metabarcoding circumvent the morphological determination process by assigning taxa b...
