Monitoring soil biodiversity in nature reserves in England - a role for metabarcoding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Tullgren extracts of soil mesofauna are proving challenging to identify using trained volunteers. Could metabarcoding be a rapid, cost-effective approach for monitoring soil mesofauna and characterising their ...

A framework for monitoring ecosystem restoration at landscape scale

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
The Landscape Restoration Monitoring Framework supports large‐scale ecosystem restoration projects to effectively assess progress towards outcomes. It provides guidance for the selection of indicators to assess change at two different time scales and across a diversity of ecosystem, ecosystem service, and socioeconomic dimensions.

Enhanced detection of equine strongyles: Insights from morphological and nemabiome metabarcoding approaches in northern Iran

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Strongyles pose significant health concerns for equids globally. Strongyles, comprising over 60 species, can lead to severe morbidity and mortality, with Strongylus vulgaris posing higher risks due to its migratory behaviour. Routine diagnostic methods, such as faecal egg counts, lack species‐level resolution, while traditional ...

Century‐Scale Changes in the Feeding Patterns of Demersal Fish Species in the Western North Sea

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding the extent and magnitude of change in marine food webs requires historical data that predates modern monitoring efforts. Such information can provide invaluable insights into the longer‐term impacts of altered trophic interactions, yet it is rarely incorporated into marine policy frameworks.

Evaluation and application of eDNA metabarcoding primers of fish: A case study in an estuarine ecosystem

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation
The selection of primers is crucial for conducting eDNA metabarcoding studies, particularly in estuarine regions characterized by complex habitats and high fish diversity. However, most previous eDNA metabarcoding studies have not systematically screened

DNA barcoding identifies a cosmopolitan diet in the ocean sunfish

open access: yes, 2016
The ocean sunfish (Mola mola) is the world’s heaviest bony fish reaching a body mass of up to 2.3 tonnes. However, the prey M. mola consumes to fuel this prodigious growth remains poorly known.
