• Optimised scat collection protocols for dietary DNA metabarcoding in vertebrates (2017, background): “Genotyping studies have investigated how the age of scats (Farrell, Roman & Sunquist 2000; Lucchini et al. 2002; Piggott 2004; Panasci et al. 2011; Vynne et al. 2012), habitat type (Vynne et al. 2012) and season (Lucchini et al. 2002; Piggott 2004) affect DNA detection and genotyping accuracy.”
• Comparison of methods to detect rare and cryptic species: A case study using the red fox (Vulpes vulpes) (2009, unknown): “As such, collection of fresh samples, reduction of degradation during storage and efficient DNA-extraction procedures are critical when faecal- and follicle-derived samples of DNA are used (Piggott and Taylor 2003a, 2003b; Piggott 2004).”
• Characterization of target nuclear DNA from faeces reduces technical issues associated with the assumptions of low-quality and quantity template (2007, unknown): “Previous studies have demonstrated that winter-collected faeces provide higher quality DNA than samples collected in other seasons (Lucchini et al. 2002; Piggott and Taylor 2003; Piggott 2004; Maudet et al. 2004; Hájková et al. 2006).”
• The impact of time and field conditions on brown bear (Ursus arctos) faecal DNA amplification (2007, background): “Comparison to other studies Four other studies have investigated the impact of time and weather conditions on faecal DNA PCR amplification success (Farrell et al. 2000; Fernando et al. 2000; Lucchini et al. 2002; Piggott 2004).”
