Detecting flying insects using car nets and DNA metabarcoding

This repository (R project) contains all scripts necessary to run the ecological/statistical analyses from the study Detecting flying insects using car nets and DNA metabarcoding (Svenningsen et al., 2021).

The data were collected in June 2018 as part of the citizen science project InsectMobile ("Insektmobilen") at the Natural History Museum of Denmark.

Data used for analysis: Svenningsen, Cecilie et al. (2021), Detecting flying insects using car nets and DNA metabarcoding, Dryad, Dataset, https://doi.org/10.5061/dryad.6q573n5z5

Preparation of ASV tables and sequencing data

  • Sequencing data was demultiplexed, filtered and cleaned with DADA2.
  • Erronous sequences were detected with LULU and removed prior to analysis.
  • Taxonomy was assigned to .fastas with the GBIF sequence ID tool.

Description of the sub directories for the sequence data processing

  • reports: a step-wise list of scripts (01_, 02_ etc.) used for processing and analysing the data
