DIY: A Practical Field‐to‐Sequencer Workflow for Metabarcoding the Diet of Terrestrial Carnivore Species

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 4, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Metabarcoding of faecal samples is a powerful, non‐invasive approach for investigating the feeding ecology of carnivores, revealing prey diversity and unexpected dietary components with greater resolution than traditional methods. However, the approach remains technically demanding, as challenges and potential biases arise at every stage, from

Passive environmental DNA sampling: A review of current practices, limitations and future directions for biodiversity monitoring

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1535-1555, May 2026.
Abstract Passive environmental DNA (eDNA) sampling is rapidly emerging as a powerful alternative to active sampling methods (e.g. direct water sampling), with a rapidly growing diversity of tested approaches but little methodological convergence.

Ecoacoustics for context‐rich direct and indirect trophic interaction data and ecological network construction

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1489-1505, May 2026.
Abstract Understanding species interactions is critical for ecology and conservation, yet conventional network construction methods often lack spatiotemporal resolution and important contextual information. The growing field of ecoacoustics enables remote sensing across large spatiotemporal scales and the monitoring of otherwise cryptic communities ...

Influence of DNA extraction kits on freshwater fungal DNA metabarcoding

open access: yesInfluence of DNA extraction kits on freshwater fungal DNA metabarcoding
[Background] Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is a common technique for efficient biodiversity monitoring, especially of microbes. Recently, the usefulness of aquatic eDNA in monitoring the diversity of both terrestrial and aquatic fungi has been suggested.

Integrating Sr isotopes, microchemistry, and genetics to reconstruct Salmonidae species and life history

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 68, Issue S2, Page S104-S129, May 2026.
Abstract Recent approaches to fisheries research emphasize the importance of the coproduction of knowledge in building resilient and culturally mindful fisheries management frameworks. Despite widespread recognition of the need for Indigenous knowledge and historical reference points as baseline data, archaeological data are rarely included in ...
