Filling in the Gaps: Adopting Ultraconserved Elements Alongside COI to Strengthen Metabarcoding Studies
Metabarcoding is rapidly gaining popularity as a means of conducting biodiversity studies. Using DNA barcodes to identify and catalog biodiversity has many advantages, and compares favorably with traditional methods based on morphological examination. Ease of use, taxonomic coverage, and increased e...
