Planktonic foraminifera eDNA signature deposited on the seafloor remains preserved after burial in marine sediments
Abstract Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding of marine sediments has revealed large amounts of sequences assigned to planktonic taxa. How this planktonic eDNA is delivered on the seafloor and preserved in the sediment is not well understood. We address these questions by comparing metabarcoding a...
