A Comparative Study of iDNA and airDNA for Biodiversity Assessments in Tropical Forest Fragments

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
Comparing invertebrate‐derived DNA and airborne eDNA across fragmented tropical forests, we show that iDNA recovers higher vertebrate richness from fewer samples, while airDNA offers greater field reliability. Together, both methods capture functional diversity gradients, supporting a combined approach for agroforestry biodiversity monitoring ...

Comparative Assessment of Freshwater Biodiversity in Los Morales Reservoir (Madrid) Using eDNA Collected From Sponges and Water Filtration

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
Filters and freshwater sponge tissue recover a comparable number of taxa through eDNA metabarcoding. Filters detect more taxa, followed by sponge tissue when host‐blocking primers are used. Each method reveals different community compositions, so combining both approaches is recommended to achieve a more realistic representation of the metazoan ...

Environmental and Spatial Processes Drive the Phylogenetic Diversity and Structure of Planktonic Microeukaryotes Revealed by 18S rDNA Metabarcoding in a Tropical Floodplain

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
The community structure of photosynthetic planktonic microeukaryotes in the floodplain lakes of the Tocantins‐Araguaia River basin is influenced by a combination of environmental filters and spatial processes. Phylogenetic information from this community highlights the importance of conserving less degraded areas to preserve the evolutionary diversity ...

Assessment of Preservation and Extraction Methods for Environmental DNA in Sediments

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
We assessed how different preservation methods (freezing, room temperature, silica gel, Longmire buffer) affect eDNA metabarcoding results for bacterial, fungal, microeukaryotic, and metazoan communities in marine and freshwater sediments. Results demonstrate taxonomic‐ and habitat‐specific responses to preservation methods, providing evidence‐based ...

Fine‐Scale Temporal Dynamics of the Honey Bee Hive Microbiome and Foraging Revealed by Airborne eDNA

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
Airborne eDNA collected within honey bee hives reveals diverse plant and microbial communities. While richness remains stable, seasonal shifts in plant and microbiome composition highlight dynamic resource use, demonstrating eDNA's potential for non‐invasive, fine‐scale monitoring of foraging and colony health. ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) has the
