Assessing the Use of Molecular Barcoding and qPCR for Investigating the Ecology of <i>Prorocentrum minimum</i> (Dinophyceae), a Harmful Algal Species.

A highly significant relationship ( p = 1.61 × 10 −14 / p = 0.00, Table 6 ) was found between the P. minimum abundance estimates derived from amplicon sequencing data and the P. minimum -specific qPCR, while the relationships between microscope counts and qPCR and microscope counts and amplicon sequencing were not significant ( p > 0.05, Table 6 ).
