Separating Faces in ARMS Metabarcoding Improves Marine Biodiversity Monitoring: A Comparison Across Protocols, Experimental Designs and Photographic Surveys

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 7, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Monitoring marine biodiversity requires approaches capable of capturing its spatial and temporal complexity. DNA metabarcoding coupled with Autonomous Reef Monitoring Structures (ARMS) is increasingly used for this purpose, yet most applications still pool all sessile fractions and rarely benchmark molecular outputs against photographic ...

Is There a Fly in My Soup? To What Extent Do Metabarcoding and Individual Barcoding Tell the Same Story?

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 7, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Metabarcoding has become the method of choice for characterizing complex arthropod communities. The extent to which metabarcoded bulk samples will recover the same community composition as individual sequencing of all individuals in the sample remains poorly quantified.

Relative abundance of the main taxonomic groups among the BLAST hits using a simplified Tree of Life diagram

open access: yes, 2015
Eukaryotes accounted for 99.8% of all positive hits, and Chordata accounted for 98.9%. Among Chordata, Actinopterygii accounted for 90.2% of all positive hits, followed by Mammalia (4.6%).

Surveying Biodiverse Coral Reef Ecosystems Across the Tree of Life With Environmental DNA

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 7, October 2026.
ABSTRACT A central challenge in evaluating biodiversity using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is that each primer set has biases resulting in selective amplification of taxonomic diversity. Here we test 11 primer pairs to assess Central Pacific coral reef diversity in the five kingdoms of marine eukaryotes: Chromista, Fungi, Metazoa, Plantae and

A putative chordate luciferase from a cosmopolitan tunicate indicates convergent bioluminescence evolution across phyla

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Pyrosomes are tunicates in the phylum Chordata, which also contains vertebrates. Their gigantic blooms play important ecological and biogeochemical roles in oceans. Pyrosoma, meaning “fire-body”, derives from their brilliant bioluminescence.

Citizen Sailors Provide a Detailed Map of Open‐Ocean Surface Biodiversity and Help Link eDNA Data to Satellite Observations

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 19, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Characterizing open ocean biodiversity at basin scales remains challenging due to sparse sampling and limited opportunities to validate satellite‐derived estimates of plankton community composition. Through the Citizens of the Sea initiative, we deployed standardized environmental DNA (eDNA) sampling kits on 27 sailing vessels during the 2024 ...

The genome sequence of Glossophaga mutica (Chiroptera, Phyllostomidae, Glossophaginae; Merriam, 1898) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Glossophaga mutica (Chordata; Mammalia; Chiroptera; Phyllostomidae). The genome sequence is 2.13 in span.

De Novo Assembly and Comparative Analysis of the Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Mesenchytraeus (Annelida, Enchytraeidae)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
This present the first mitochondrial genome dataset for 13 Mesenchytraeus species from the Changbai Mountain glacial refugium. Beyond characterizing standard genomic features, we perform comparative analyses of gene order, nucleotide composition, codon usage, and control region structure.
