A new versatile primer set targeting a short fragment of the mitochondrial COI region for metabarcoding metazoan diversity: application for characterizing coral reef fish gut contents (2013, result): “This is in accordance with our morphological observations of prey remains, as well as with previous studies that described these three groups as the main food source of these generalist fish species [40,58-60].”
Predators drive community structure in coral reef fish assemblages (2015, background): “Piscivorous fishes on coral reefs are also known to be highly opportunistic, and often include a wide variety of prey species in their diet (Kingsford 1992, Kulbicki et al. 2005).”
Functional diversity responses to changing species richness in reef fish communities (2008, methodology): “…gut length, and other morphological traits that affect feeding behavior, size and type of food that can be consumed (Scharf et al. 2000, Jennings et al. 2002, Kulbicki et al. 2005); classification of species using this method gave 4 maximum size categories (<10, 10–25, 25–50, and >50 cm).”
Reconstructing hyperdiverse food webs: Gut content metabarcoding as a tool to disentangle trophic interactions on coral reefs (2019, background): “Visually examining reef fish gut contents to assess fish ingestion (e.g. Choat, Clements, & Robbins, 2002; Kulbicki et al., 2005; Randall, 1967) has provided a baseline for assigning species to broad trophic categories.”
