Fish Gut Metabarcoding Detects Diets and Parasites Simultaneously
Environmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 6, November–December 2024.Understanding dietary habits and trophic niches of species is crucial for the conservation and management of species and ecosystems. We applied a multimarker metabarcoding approach to assess the diet and parasites of commercially exploited beaked redfish (Sebastes mentella).

Another tool in the toolbox: Aphid‐specific Wolbachia protect against fungal pathogens
Environmental Microbiology, Volume 26, Issue 11, November 2024.Wolbachia infected more than 80% of Pentalonia aphids sampled across the Hawaiian Islands and other locations. The aphid‐specific M‐supergroup strains of this symbiont protected against a specialist fungal pathogen, Pandora, but not the generalist pathogen Beauveria or the parasitoid Aphidius colemanii.

EFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 11, November 2024.Abstract The objective of this opinion was to determine if any wild caught fish species, originating from specific fishing grounds and consumed in the EU/EFTA could be considered free of zoonotic parasites. In this Opinion the term ‘fishery products’ only refers to fresh finfish.

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 24, Issue 7, October 2024.Abstract Molecular techniques like metabarcoding, while promising for exploring diversity of communities, are often impeded by the lack of reference DNA sequences available for taxonomic annotation. Our study explores the benefits of combining targeted DNA barcoding and morphological taxonomy to improve metabarcoding efficiency, using beach meiofauna ...

Habitat conditions and not moss composition mediate microbial community structure in Swiss peatlands
Environmental Microbiology, Volume 26, Issue 5, May 2024.Prokaryotes and microeukaryotes associated with moss play a pivotal role in preserving the functioning of peatland ecosystems. Therefore, it is crucial to identify the environmental variables that most significantly influence their composition. Our research, employing structural equation modelling and Mantel tests, underscores that it is not the ...
