Sources of uncertainty in DNA metabarcoding of whole communities: Implications for its use in biomonitoring by J. Iwan Jones, Amanda Arnold, Dominik Buchner, John F. Murphy, Jasmine N. Childress, Pedro Beja, Florian Altermatt, Kristian Meissner, Ian Adams, Meri Anderson, Yaisel J. Borrell, Andrew G. Briscoe, Kat Bruce, Cátia Chaves, Chris Conyers, Kristy Deiner, Vasco Elbrecht, Álvaro Fueyo, Tim Goodall, Javier Granero‐Castro, Cristina Hartmann‐Fatu, Eleanor Jones, Elvira Mächler, Filipa M. S. Martins, Sam McGreig, Lyndall Pereira‐da‐Conceicoa, James L. Pretty, Daniel S. Read, Ben Price, Florian Leese, Rosetta C. Blackman

“…Logistic regression indicated that detectability did not vary among taxa, but that taxa occurring in low abundance (less than five individuals in our samples) were more likely to be missed via metabarcoding. Our findings highlight sources of uncertainty influencing DNA‐based methods and, particularly, the variability of results generated from individual laboratories. …”
