Applying pollen DNA metabarcoding to the study of plant-pollinator interactions.
Applications in Plant Sciences, 2017. 5(6): 1600124
This work shows the integration between our DNA metabarcoding work and our network studies—demonstrating for the first time that highly-resolved pollination networks can be constructed by metabarcoding pollen carried by flower visitors. We highlight a number of suggestions for using this technique for network studies.
