Within the AMMOD research project, the metabarcoding module — developed with the Systematic Botany Group at the University of Giessen — collected insects, pollen and spores autonomously in the field and identified them through DNA barcodes, reaching organisms too small or cryptic to identify by sight. A related strand of work addressed the data flows that turn raw sequences into trustworthy monitoring records.
