Diet of sympatric pine marten (Martes martes) and stone marten (Martes foina) identified by genotyping of DNA from faeces (2007, methodology): “Molecular genetics provides reliable methods of species identification, and is increasingly used for distinguishing faeces of different species (Reed et al. 1997, Farrell et al. 2000, Mills et al. 2000, Davison et al. 2002, Dalén et al. 2004).”
Characterization of target nuclear DNA from faeces reduces technical issues associated with the assumptions of low-quality and quantity template (2007, methodology): “Species-diagnostic sequences such as mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences such as control region or cytochrome b are often used (e.g., Dalèn et al. 2004).”
