Applicability of environmental DNA metabarcoding for the hyporheic zone of a stream bed
Environmental DNA, Volume 5, Issue 6, Page 1667-1678, November 2023., 2023 To understand whole riverine biodiversity, including hyporheric zones, it is necessary to develop a method to easily and accurately detect hyporheos communities in hyporheic zones, which currently remains poorly understood. Using eDNA metabarcoding for cytochrome‐c oxidase subunit I (COI) regions, we successfully detected various hyporheos and benthos ...

The incidence of bacterial endosymbionts in terrestrial arthropods. [PDF]
, 2015 Intracellular endosymbiotic bacteria are found in many terrestrial arthropods and have a profound influence on host biology. A basic question about these symbionts is why they infect the hosts that they do, but estimating symbiont incidence (the ...
