The best of both worlds: A combined approach for analyzing microalgal diversity via metabarcoding and morphology-based methods.
An increasing number of studies use next generation sequencing (NGS) to analyze complex communities, but is the method sensitive enough when it comes to identification and quantification of species? We compared NGS with morphology-based identification methods in an analysis of microalgal (periphyton...
