Improved efficiency in eDNA metabarcoding of benthic metazoans by sieving sediments prior to DNA extraction

Abstract Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding can be used to rapidly characterize the taxon assemblage of benthic communities in sediments and thus has high potential to complement routine regulatory monitoring of benthic impacts. However, when using DNA extracted directly from subtidal sediments,...
