A DNA metabarcoding approach for recovering plankton communities from archived samples fixed in formalin.
Plankton samples have been routinely collected and preserved in formalin in many laboratories and museums for more than 100 years. Recently, attention has turned to use DNA information from formalin-fixed samples to examine changes in plankton diversity over time. However, no molecular ecological st...
