Comparative Analysis of Pasture Composition: DNA Metabarcoding Versus Quadrat‐Based Botanical Surveys in Experimental Grassland Plots

Comparative Analysis of Pasture Composition: DNA Metabarcoding Versus Quadrat‐Based Botanical Surveys in Experimental Grassland Plots

ABSTRACT DNA metabarcoding provides a scalable alternative to traditional botanical surveys, which are often time‐consuming and reliant on taxonomic expertise. Here, we compare DNA metabarcoding with quadrat‐based botanical surveys to assess plant species composition in experimental grassland plots...
