Dung beetle iDNA for fungi sampling
The metabarcoding sequences generated during the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden project by T.S. Nimalrathna, H. Fan, A. Campos-Arceiz, and A. Nakamura are provided. In this project, we demonstrate the dung beetle's potential as an iDNA sampler for studying mycological communities in tropical regions on a spatial and temporal scale. The uploaded data includes fungal sequences extracted from dung beetle gut on a spatial and temporal scale.
