Target-gene amplicon sequencing is the most exploited high-throughput sequencing
application in microbial ecology. The targets are taxonomically relevant genes, with 16S …

Nuclear large subunit ribosomal DNA is widely used in fungal phylogenetics and to an
increasing extent also amplicon-based environmental sequencing. The relatively short …

With recent methodological advances, molecular markers are increasingly used for semi-
quantitative analyses of fungal communities. The aim to preserve quantitative relationships …

With the continual improvement in high‐throughput sequencing technology and constant
updates to fungal reference databases, the use of amplicon‐based DNA markers as a tool to …

The inclusion of phylogenetic metrics in community ecology has provided insights into
important ecological processes, particularly when combined with high-throughput …

The advent of new high-throughput DNA-sequencing technologies promises to redefine the
way in which fungi and fungal communities–as well as other groups of organisms–are …

Next-generation amplicon sequencing is a powerful tool in ecological studies of fungi.
Technological development suggests that short fragment high-throughput techniques, eg …

Marker gene amplicon sequencing is often preferred over whole genome sequencing for
microbial community characterization, due to its lower cost while still enabling assessment of …

High throughput sequencing has become a powerful tool for fungal ecologists to explore the
diversity and composition of fungal communities. However, various biases and errors are …

While high-throughput sequencing methods are revolutionizing fungal ecology, recovering
accurate estimates of species richness and abundance has proven elusive. We sought to …
