Efficacy of metabarcoding for identification of fish eggs evaluated with mock communities [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 There is urgent need for effective and efficient monitoring of marine fish populations. Monitoring eggs and larval fish may be more informative than that traditional fish surveys since ichthyoplankton surveys reveal the reproductive activities of fish ...

The power of metabarcoding: Can we improve bioassessment and biodiversity surveys of stream macroinvertebrate communities? [PDF]
Metabarcoding and Metagenomics, 2021 Most stream bioassessment and biodiversity surveys are currently based on morphological identification of communities. However, DNA metabarcoding is emerging as a fast and cost-effective alternative for species identification. We compared both methods in
