Morphospecies • Take photo of each morphospecies. • Sort morphospeciesinto different bottles. • Use SoilBioStoreto count the number of animals. • Identify species bybarcoding and verify by conventional taxonomic identification of physical voucher subsequently archived

Metabarcoding — DNA extraction Environmental DNA (eDNA) extraction: (Bienertet al.2012; Taberletet al. 2012, Yu et al. 2012, Yang et al. 2013 )
Metabarcoding — DNA extraction Environmental DNA (eDNA) extraction: Hypothesis 1: Total eDNAcould represent the real biodiversity. (Bienertet al.2012; Taberletet al. 2012, Yu et al. 2012, Yang et al. 2013 )
metabarcoding—PCR strategy Primer: mt-COI 12S/16S mt-rDNA 18S/28S rDNA nuclear Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) Advantages and disadvantages of each gene region for metagenetic analyses. (Machida and Knowlton 2012)

Advantages and disadvantages of each gene region for metagenetic analyses. (Machida and Knowlton 2012)
Development of DNA metabarcodingfor the investigating of changes in the soil mesofauna biodiversity.
Biodiversity change in spruce forest under the stress of ash • Ash treatment 0, 3, 4.5, 6 t/ha • Sampling occasions • Pretreatment sampling, April 1, 2014 • Spring 2014, • June 2-3 Autumn 2014, • (spring 2015) autumn 2015 • spring 2016 • autumn 2016 ? • Analysis strategy • Conventional method - morphospecies • Metabarcoding
Comparison of food web changes when affected by different levels of ash • Location: Agricultural field, Foulum • Ash treatments: super phosphate at 30 and 300 kg ha-1 combined with either • wood pill ash • straw ash • Norway spruce, Piceaabies, ash • Sampling: Time: September, 2014 Content: soil cores for eDNA analysis • Analysis strategy: conventional method/metabarcoding
