Establishing genome sequencing and assembly for non-model and emerging model organisms: a brief guide

Frontiers in Zoology
Reference genome assemblies are the basis for comprehensive genomic analyses and comparisons. Due to declining sequencing costs and growing computational power, genome projects are now feasible in smaller labs.

First genomic study on Lake Tanganyika sprat Stolothrissa tanganicae: a lack of population structure calls for integrated management of this important fisheries target species

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019
Background Clupeid fisheries in Lake Tanganyika (East Africa) provide food for millions of people in one of the world’s poorest regions. Due to climate change and overfishing, the clupeid stocks of Lake Tanganyika are declining.

Taxonomy, biodiversity and their publics in twenty-first-century DNA barcoding [PDF]

, 2010
We examine the crafting of publics in the global Barcoding of Life Initiative (BOLI)—seen as crucial for re invigorating, and democratizing, early-twentyfirst- century taxonomic sciences and hence for actually achieving biodiversity protection.

Analysis of plant science higher education reveals mixed provision which falls short of delivering national priorities

JSFA reports, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 78-90, March 2025.
Abstract Background Many reports from the UK government and other organisations highlight a need for a plant aware workforce, and some enumerate specific areas of plant science where there is a skills shortage. We have undertaken a systematic analysis of the content of degree programmes that advertise as teaching plant biology to determine if the UK ...

Methodological insights into Biodiversity Impact Assessment and the Nexus-by-design approach in the European Green Deal [PDF]

openBiodiversity loss is a pressing sustainability challenge, yet corporate surveys reveal a surprising low prioritization of biodiversity. This study explores the emerging field of biodiversity management, proposing a comprehensive framework for ...

Microbial communities and functional diversity in seafood

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Functional diversity encompasses ecosystem processes that enhance adaptability to environmental change. This study explores the diversity of microorganisms associated with seafood. In this paper, we present our knowledge of microbial diversity in relation to seafood.

Underground Lag: Fungal Community and Edaphic Legacies After Disturbance

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Páramos are neotropical mountain ecosystems that regulate water and store large amounts of carbon, but are increasingly degraded by agriculture and grazing. Although native vegetation often recolonizes after abandonment, belowground recovery remains poorly understood.

From the sea to DNA barcode: Optimized preservation method for gelatinous zooplankton integrative taxonomy

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Assigning taxonomic identity and thus assessing taxonomic diversity in gelatinous zooplankton is challenging due to their fragility and difficult preservation. Formalin fixation compromises DNA integrity, while flash‐freezing, ethanol, and acetone preservation affect morphological features. In this study, we developed a methodological protocol
