Metabarcoding Insights Into the Trophic Behavior and Identity of Intertidal Benthic Foraminifera
Foraminifera are ubiquitous marine protists with an important role in the benthic carbon cycle. However, morphological observations often fail to resolve their exact taxonomic placement and there is a lack of field studies on their particular trophic preferences. Here, we propose the application of...
