New publication alert - MetaZooGene Intercalibration Experiment (MZG-ICE): Metabarcoding Marine Zooplankton Diversity of the Global Ocean

Proud to be part of the MetaZooGene Intercalibration Experiment (MZG-ICE), a global SCOR initiative published in Molecular Ecology Resources.

[Dr Ashrenee Govender-Paul @AshreneeG]

A huge congratulations to all co-authors and the MetaZooGene Working Group for advancing best practices in marine molecular ecology.

All of these mini-barcodes have given us amazing results in our metabarcoding studies.

The design and testing of taxon-specific mini-barcode markers for metabarcoding of marine zooplankton.

We focused on Copepoda (copepods), Euphausiacea (krill), Chaetognatha (arrow worms), and Hydrozoa (Cnidaria).

[Dr Ashrenee Govender-Paul @AshreneeG]

In addition to these primers, we have previously designed and tested taxon-specific mini-barcode markers for lobsters (https://t.co/4NveSlvA3Q), prawns, crabs, shrimp and fish (https://t.co/JUEp112vV4).

Evidence of a pelagic nursery area for phyllosomas of the scyllarid lobster Acantharctus ornatus (Holthuis, 1960) (Decapoda: Achelata: Scyllaridae) in a coastal bight in South Africa.

Contributing towards the standardisation of #metabarcoding protocols for marine zooplankton, this study finds consistent species detection across different net types, tow durations, and sampling times.
