Fine‐scale estimation of trophic interactions is an important subject in the field of ecology.
Diet analysis based on fecal DNA metabarcoding has been accepted as a noninvasive …

Fish are both consumers and prey, and as such part of a dynamic trophic network.
Measuring how they are trophically linked, both directly and indirectly, to other species is …

Dietary DNA metabarcoding enables researchers to identify and characterize trophic
interactions with a high degree of taxonomic precision. It is also sensitive to sources of bias …

Studies of the diet, feeding habits and trophic activity of top marine predators are essential
for understanding their trophodynamics. The main direct method used for such studies thus …

High precision, high coverage DNA-based diet analysis tools allow great insight into the
food web interactions of cryptic taxa. We used DNA fecal-metabarcoding to look for …

Both observational and indirect evidence are widely used to determine the diets of wild
animals. Direct observations are often assumed to provide the most comprehensive …

Overbrowsing by the explosively increasing deer has a huge impact on forest vegetation in
the temperate zone. Although it was expected that, over the years, the decline of forest floor …

Two species breeding in sympatry are more likely to coexist if their ecological niches are
segregated either in time, space or in trophic habits. Here, we combined GPS-tracking …

Lunar phase and illumination are known to affect nocturnal behavior of many organisms,
particularly through predator-prey interactions. Visual predators can benefit from higher light …

The green turtle (Chelonia mydas) is a circumglobal species with a wide dietary breadth that
varies among regions and life history stages. Comprehensive understanding of foraging …
