Evaluation of in-field DNA degradation of mitochondrial- and genomic DNA in snowsampled faecal pellets from rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta)
The use of non invasive genetic sampling (NGS) have become increasingly relevant in genetic studies applied to ecology. Reliable methods should be tailored to species and environments. Rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) spend their entire lifecycle in the alpine region and roost in snow holes to save ene...
