Development of a DNA Metabarcoding Method for the Identification of Bivalve Species in Seafood Products

The production of bivalve species has been increasing in the last decades. In spite of strict requirements for species declaration, incorrect labelling of bivalve products has repeatedly been detected. We present a DNA metabarcoding method allowing the identification of bivalve species belonging to...
