This study summarizes results of a DNA barcoding campaign on German Diptera, involving
analysis of 45,040 specimens. The resultant DNA barcode library includes records for 2,453 …

Long‐lived top predators shape biodiversity structure in their ecosystems and predator–prey
interactions are critical in decoding how communities function. Studies on the foraging …

Metagenomics can generate data on the diet of herbivores, without the need for primer
selection and PCR enrichment steps as is necessary in metabarcoding. Metagenomic …

The world's largest terrestrial mammal, Asian elephants, are known to have enormous
feeding needs. Several factors such as season, sex, age, and daily activities influence the …

Molecular techniques allow non-invasive dietary studies from faeces, providing an
invaluable tool to unveil ecological requirements of endangered or elusive species. They …

Human–elephant conflict (HEC) contributes to the increasing death of Asian elephants due
to road accidents, retaliatory killings and fatal infections from being trapped in snares …

Accurate dietary inference of wild carnivores is essential to understand their impacts on the
ecosystem and manage carnivore-livestock conflicts. Diet analysis with fecal DNA …

Fecal DNA metabarcoding is a noninvasive, accurate, rapid, and cost-effective tool to
investigate diet composition. However, most fecal DNA metabarcoding studies have been …

Eurasian otters are apex predators of freshwater ecosystems and a recovering species
across much of their European range; investigating the dietary variation of this predator over …
