Competition, predation, and facilitation mechanisms are the major drivers of biodiversity and community structure in marine benthic ecosystems. Habitat complexity is a determining factor of faunal richness and biodiversity in these communities. The s...

The “marine animal forests” are among the most diverse ecosystems in the Biosphere. However, exhaustive biodiversity assessment of these communities has been so far elusive. The real extent of biodiversity and its temporal and spatial variability pat... Read More about Metabarcoding techniques for assessing biodiversity of marine animal forests.
