Assessment of species diversity and distribution of an ancient diatom lineage using a DNA metabarcoding approach.

Continuous efforts to estimate actual diversity and to trace the species distribution and ranges in the natural environments have gone in equal pace with advancements of the technologies in the study of microbial species diversity from microscopic observations to DNA-based barcoding. DNA metabarcodi...
