title: Amplicon seq using MiFish primers from Black-capped petrel fecal sample
design: We extracted DNA from fecal samples using the Qiagen QIAamp Fast DNA Stool kit. To identify fish prey specifically, we amplified a fragment of the 12S rRNA gene using the popular MiFish primers (Miya et al. 2015) to which we had added TruSeq tails. We visualized PCR products using gel electrophoresis before being diluted and sent for adapter ligation and sequencing at the Hubbard Center for Genome Studies at the University of New Hampshire.
