The Quaternary Biodiversity Crisis Assessed with Bulk Bone Metabarcoding

It is widely accepted that climate change and human activities have been central contributing factors in driving megafaunal extinctions but determining the exact contribution of each can be challenging to address. Using a novel genetic approach, Bulk Bone Metabarcoding, I explore the invisible genet...
