Within the Biodiversity Genomics Europe project, the "Ecological Restoration - Soil" case study was designed to evaluate changes in soil biodiversity during the process of ecological succession, sampling a chronosequence of replicated plots at different stages of restoration since land abandonment. The present SOP describes soil sampling under sterile and cold conditions for metabarcoding analyses. This case study involved sampling four successional stages, represented by specific vegetation types ...

Within the Biodiversity Genomics Europe project, the "High Mountain Systems - Arthropods" case study was designed to evaluate how arthropod communities change along altitudinal gradients in seven selected mountain systems across different countries in Europe, establishing baseline sampling in mountain ranges to track biodiversity shifts associated with climate change. This SOP describes the sampling design and fieldwork methodology for retrieving arthropod bulk samples for metabarcoding analyses. ...

Within the Biodiversity Genomics Europe project, the "Pollinator Communities" case study was designed to evaluate pollinator diversity in urban gardens in comparison with agricultural fields, to understand the role of urban habitats for pollinator conservation. This SOP describes the sampling design and Malaise trap fieldwork to retrieve pollinator bulk samples for metabarcoding analysis. This case study involved paired sampling, choosing one large garden and one agricultural field with no more ...

This workflow uses a slightly modified version of the Santa Cruz Reaction (SCR) protocol by Kapp et al. 2021 for library building of museum specimens. The reaction volumes can be halved to reduce reagent costs, lower volumes have not been tested yet. Please cite the original publication if using this method: https://doi.org/10.1093/jhered/esab012
