Abstract During the last decade, high‐throughput metabarcoding became routine for analyzing protistan diversity and distributions in nature. Amid a multitude of exciting findings, scientists have also identified addressed technical biological limitations, although problems still exist inference meaningful taxonomic ecological knowledge based on short DNA sequences. Given extensive use this approach, it is critical to settle our understanding its strengths weaknesses synthesize up‐to‐date methodological conceptual trends. This article summarizes key scientific identifies current future directions protist research that uses metabarcoding.

Abstract Background Mangrove ecosystems are vulnerable due to the exotic Spartina alterniflora ( S. ) invasion in China. However, little is known about mangrove sediment microbial community assembly processes and interactions under invasion. Here, we investigated co-occurrence networks of archaeal bacterial communities along coastlines Fujian province, southeast Results Assembly overall was driven predominantly by stochastic processes, relative role stochasticity stronger for bacteria than archaea. Co-occurrence network analyses showed that structure more complex The keystone taxa often had low abundances (conditionally rare taxa), suggesting abundance may significantly contribute stability. Moreover, increased drift process (part processes), improved complexity stability, but decreased stability bacteria. This could be attributed influenced diversity dispersal ability, as well soil environmental conditions. Conclusions study fills a gap patterns both archaea ecosystem Thereby provides new insights plant on biogeographic distribution patterns.
