Authors
Biodiversity surveys through morphology provide invaluable data to inform biological monitoring efforts, involving specialised taxonomic skills that are not always available. The revolution brought by the advent of metabarcoding associated to massive sequencing is currently seen as a potential advance, even if different approaches may often provide different results. Here we test if reliable results from metabarcoding can be obtained by i) basing the analyses on a detailed knowledge of the local diversity from morphology, ii) applying tools from DNA taxonomy to create a local reference library, ii) developing custom primers, taking as example the crustacean zooplankton of a subalpine lake in Northern Italy, Lake Maggiore. We support the idea that occurrences from metabarcoding can be reliable, especially with targeted primers, but we confirm that read numbers from massive sequencing could not be related to abundance of individuals in our analyses. Data from metabarcoding can thus be used to reliably monitor species occurrence in the lake, but not changes in abundance.
