The effect of plant identity and the level of plant decay on molecular gut content analysis in a herbivorous soil insect
Plant roots represent an important food source for soil-dwelling animals, but tracking herbivore food choices below-ground is difficult. Here, we present an optimized PCR assay for the detection of plant DNA in the guts of invertebrates, using general plant primers targeting the trnT-F chloroplast D...
