Genomics‐Based Approaches to Ant Monitoring in Land Management: Validation of COI Metabarcoding Primers

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
We validated ant‐specific COI metabarcoding primers using in silico, in vitro and in situ analyses, identifying assays that improve ant detection from mock communities, spike‐in tests and soil eDNA. The recommended assays reduce reliance on taxonomic expertise and enable scalable, high‐throughput ant biomonitoring for land‐management applications ...

Improved COI taxonomic assignment workflow enhances detection of invertebrates in environmental DNA

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is an increasingly popular and powerful tool in ecology, offering a non‐invasive method to assess biodiversity and monitor ecosystem health across diverse environments. While the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene is one of the most widely used markers for studying eukaryotic ...

Ingestion of Alexandrium pacificum Cysts by a Deposit Feeder: An Option for Ecosystem‐Based Approach Benefiting Aquaculture and Coastal Communities?

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
Harmful algal blooms caused by the paralytic shellfish toxin‐producing species Alexandrium pacificum have increased in recent years in one of the most important aquaculture regions of New Zealand, the Marlborough Sounds. Reoccurring blooms have created large cysts beds in the sediments throughout the sounds. In this region, large populations of the sea

The Noble Chafer and traditional orchards: Evaluating the role of indicator species in the conservation of cultural landscapes

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 695-705, March 2026.
Abstract England's traditional orchards are important habitats for a range of invertebrate species, providing biodiverse habitat for many species not found in other landscapes. Increased loss of these once common landscape features, exacerbated by changing land use, anthropogenic habitat fragmentation, and the loss of traditional or customary practices,

Demystifying fungal systematics: A gateway to fungal literacy and societal/ecological relevance through familiar species

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 499-515, March 2026.
Fungal systematics can feel overwhelming given the vast species diversity within this kingdom, with numerous subgroups at every taxonomic rank. This often creates a disconnect between the undertsnidng of fungal taxonomic diversity and their societal relevance.

3D‐Printed Porous High‐Entropy Alloy Boosts Peroxymonosulfate Activation for Long‐Term Organic Pollutant Degradation

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐entropy alloys (HEAs) have attracted considerable interest from researchers owing to their tunable chemical compositions, exceptional structural stability, and promising catalytic properties. However, their large‐scale application is often hindered by complex manufacturing techniques and poor durability.
