Regional Comparison of Snow Leopard (Panthera uncia) Diet using DNA Metabarcoding
2021-03-01
Abstract excerpt
Application of next-generation sequencing (NGS) to DNA metabarcoding can greatly increase the understanding of predator–prey dynamics and the conflict between wildlife and humans, but remains underutilized for carnivores such as the threatened snow leopard (Panthera uncia). To date, this technique was hindered by the difficulty in discerning closely related caprines (Caprinae). We identified a segment of mitochond...
