Towards DNA metabarcoding‐based haplotype for monitoring terrestrial arthropod communities

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
The wocDNA metabarcoding includes robust sampling, wocDNA genomic extraction and library preparation. High‐throughput sequencing (HTS) followed by bioinformatic processing for quality control. The creation of a community matrix from haplotypes for ecological diversity and phylogenetic analyses.

Charting a course for freshwater biomonitoring: The grand challenges identified by the global scientific community

Ecological Indicators
The past 50 years have seen biomonitoring emerge as an essential means of generating the knowledge needed to inform protection and restoration of freshwater ecosystems. Despite the successes of biomonitoring, most freshwater ecosystems remain unmonitored.

eDNA metabarcoding of archived leaf samples reveals arthropod diversity decline in South Korean but not in German forest ecosystems

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Environmental samples from the South Korean (A) and German (B) Environmental Specimen Banks were analysed regarding long‐term trends in canopy‐associated arthropod communities over 11 years. Samples of both Environmental Specimen Banks showed tree species‐specific arthropod communities that were significantly different from other tree species ...

Biomonitoring of the genotoxic potential of aqueous extracts of soils and bottom ash resulting from municipal solid waste incineration, using the comet and micronucleus tests on amphibian (Xenopus laevis) larvae and bacterial assays (MutatoxR and Ames tests) [PDF]

, 2006
The management of contaminated soils and wastes is a matter of considerable human concern. The present study evaluates the genotoxic potential of aqueous extracts of two soils (leachates) and of bottom ash resulting from municipal solid waste ...

Exposure to Metal Mixtures and Childhood Adiposity: An Examination of Periods of Heightened Susceptibility Between Gestation and Late Childhood

Pediatric Obesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Childhood obesity is a public health concern. Studies have investigated the effects of metal mixtures on childhood obesity but none have identified periods of heightened susceptibility of exposure. We identified the periods by investigating the association of metal mixture, measured at four time points, with adiposity.

Quantitative insights into the spatio‐temporal variation of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) biomass in a river catchment using eDNA metabarcoding

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Effective species conservation and management requires comprehensive biomonitoring, enhanced by combining traditional and newer methodologies, such as environmental DNA (eDNA) analyses. A seasonal pulse of spawning adult Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) was detected by normalised eDNA 12S reads from metabarcoding, which facilitated estimation of ...

Effects of the antiozonant ethylenediurea (EDU) on Fraxinus ornus L.. The role of drought [PDF]

, 2017
Ethylenediurea (EDU) is a synthetic chemical known to protect plants from the phytotoxic effects of tropospheric ozone (O3). Although many studies have proposed the use of EDU for studying the O3 effects under field conditions, its mechanism of action is
