    • A multi-marker metabarcoding approach to study tardigrade diversity in forest ecosystems. 

      Topstad, Lasse (Master thesis, 2019)
      Som annen mikroskopisk fauna blir bjørnedyr ofte oversett i økologiske undersøkelser. Med sin kosmopolitiske utbredelse i alt fra sedimenter på havets dyp til høyalpine fjellområder, spiller bjørnedyr viktige roller i mange ...

    • DNA barcodes and morphology reveal unrecognized species in Chironomidae (Diptera) 

      Lin, Xiaolong; Stur, Elisabeth; Ekrem, Torbjørn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
