Lopes, Carla Martins [UNESP]; Baêta, Délio [UNESP]; Sasso, Thais; Vanzetti, Agustín; Raquel Zamudio, Kelly; Taberlet, PierreMade available in DSpace on 2021-06-25T11:00:24Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2021-05-01; Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq); Leaf litter habitats shelter a great variety of organisms, which play an important role in ecosystem dynamics. However, monitoring species in leaf litter is challenging, especially in highly diverse environments such as tropical fores...

Advances and prospects of environmental DNA in neotropical rainforests
Zinger, Lucie; Donald, Julian; Brosse, Sébastien; Gonzalez, Mailyn Adriana; Iribar, Amaia; Leroy, Céline; Murienne, Jérôme; Orivel, JérômeMade available in DSpace on 2020-12-12T01:16:28Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2020-01-01; The rainforests of the Neotropics shelter a vast diversity of plant, animal and microscopic species that provide critical ecosystem goods and services for both local and worldwide populations. These environments face a major crisis due to increased deforestation, pollution, and climate change, emphasizi...
Modelling technical and biological biases in macroinvertebrate community assess...
Martins, Filipa M.S.; Porto, Miguel; Feio, Maria J.; Egeter, Bastian; Bonin, Aurélie; Serra, Sónia R.Q.; Taberlet, Pierre; Beja, PedroDNA metabarcoding from the ethanol used to store macroinvertebrate bulk samples is a convenient methodological option in molecular biodiversity assessment and biomonitoring of aquatic ecosystems, as it preserves specimens and reduces problems associated with sample sorting. However, this method may be affected by errors and biases, which need to be thoroughly quantified before it can be mainstreamed into biomon...
A DNA Metabarcoding Study of a Primate Dietary Diversity and Plasticity across ...
Quéméré, Erwan; Hibert, Fabrice; Miquel, Christian; Lhuillier, Emeline; Rasolondraibe, Emmanuel; Champeau, Julie; Rabarivola, Clément; Nusbaumer, LouisIn tropical regions, most primary ecosystems have been replaced by mosaic landscapes in which species must cope with a large shift in the distribution of their habitat and associated food resources. Primates are particularly vulnerable to habitat modifications. Most species persist in small fragments surrounded by complex human-mediated matrices whose structure and connectivity may strongly influence their disp...
