The paper estimates Madagascar's insect fauna contains at least 250,000 species, most unrecorded, and finds global homeostatic forces, not lineage composition, shape its ecological similarity to temperate forests.

This study compares biotic and abiotic drivers of ecosystem functioning in temperate and tropical regions, finding differing patterns and drivers between the two zones.

This study evaluates how lysis methods, spike-ins, and sample processing affect the accuracy of insect metabarcoding for species occurrence and abundance.

HAPP improves deep metabarcoding data processing by enhancing signal-to-noise ratio through four steps, showing significant performance improvements over existing methods.

The paper presents comprehensive DNA metabarcoding data from Sweden and Madagascar, characterizing terrestrial arthropod faunas and providing insights into community composition and dynamics.

One year of COI metabarcoding of 197 Malaise traps across Sweden detected 1,535 of 2,990 known Lepidoptera species, plus specimen-validated new country records, range extensions and putative undescribed species.
