Overview  

This approach has been developed since 2011 by SPYGEN and its partners. It is based on the use of universal primer pairs* and Next Generation Sequencing technologies. This non-invasive method enables blind detection of all species of a target group present on the study site and thus represents a powerful environmental monitoring tool. It enables improved detection of rare species (in comparison with conventional methods), a reduction in survey costs and the avoidance of any risk of introduction of pathogens or invasive species during sampling.
