Maximising environmental pressure-response relationship signals from diatom-based metabarcoding in rivers
(Elsevier, 2023-12-28)
DNA metabarcoding has been performed on a large number of river phytobenthos samples collected from the UK, using rbcL primers optimised for diatoms. Within this dataset the composition of non-diatom ...
Diatoms as dandelions: convergent evolution in the reproductive biology of small Nitzschia species (Bacillariophyta) and its possible taxonomic consequences
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2024-03-01)
Nitzschia soratensis and N. inconspicua are two small diatoms that are extremely similar in the light microscope though separable in subtle aspects of valve and girdle ultrastructure. They are not closely ...
