Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Cytisus scoparius*

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 7, Page 1877-1933, July 2025.
Broom is an attractive and common native plant across Britain, Ireland and most of Europe, and yet it is considered a harmful and invasive weed around the rest of the world. This is aided by broom thriving on poor dry soils, helped by using green stems for photosynthesis and having root nodules to fix nitrogen.

Evaluation of Oxford Nanopore Technologies MinION Sequencer as a Novel Short Amplicon Metabarcoding Tool Using Arthropod Mock Sample and Irish Bat Diet Characterisation

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.
Oxford Nanopore Technologies MinION (ONT) Nanopore‐NanoPipe pipeline was compared to Illumina‐Obitools command‐line pipeline by using arthropod mock community input DNA for metabarcoding analysis. We demonstrated that a relatively simple ONT sequencing metabarcoding procedure followed by user‐friendly bioinformatics processing by graphical interface ...

Robot‐Aided Measurement of Insect Diversity on Vegetation Using Environmental DNA

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.
We developed a novel method combining drone‐based sampling and environmental DNA (eDNA) with Oxford Nanopore sequencing to monitor insect biodiversity on vegetation. Using a DJI Matrice 3 drone, we collected eDNA samples from grassland, shrub and forest habitats in Switzerland, detecting 64 insect taxa and revealing habitat‐specific differences in ...
