Environmental DNA (eDNA) is genetic material that has been shed from macroorganisms. It
has received increased attention as an indirect marker for biodiversity monitoring. This …

We reviewed the current methodology and practices of the DNA metabarcoding approach
using a universal PCR primer pair MiFish, which co-amplifies a short fragment of fish DNA …

DNA metabarcoding is increasingly used for the assessment of aquatic communities, and
numerous studies have investigated the consistency of this technique with traditional …

Metabarcoding of environmental DNA is increasingly used for biodiversity assessments in
aquatic communities. The efficiency and outcome of these efforts are dependent upon either …

While many studies have considered the ability of eDNA to assess animal communities in
lacustrine settings, fewer have considered riverine systems, particularly those spanning the …

Accurate data characterizing species distribution and abundance are critical for
conservation and management of aquatic resources. Inventory methods, such as gillnet …

Through the development of environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding, in situ monitoring
of organisms is becoming easier and promises a revolution in our approaches to detect …

Biodiversity surveys may require the use of multiple types of sampling gear to maximize the
efficiency of species detections, yet few studies have investigated how to optimally distribute …

Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding has been used to study fish diversity in various
aquatic ecosystems. However, studies on fish community structure in estuarine ecosystems …

Although we are currently experiencing worldwide biodiversity loss, local species richness
does not always decline under anthropogenic pressure. This conservation paradox may …
