Review: DNA metabarcoding approach for fisheries management
Abstract Increased publications on meta-barcoding promote interests in studies associated with fisheries biodiversity, diet, and biomonitoring. These studies primarily concentrated on an ecosystem that has implications for fisheries management with complex interpretation.

Background Although wild ungulate populations are heavily monitored throughout Europe, we understand little of how parasites affect population dynamics, and there is no systematic, long-term monitoring of parasite diversity and parasite loads.

Inferring functional diversity from environmental DNA metabarcoding
AbstractEnvironmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is a reliable method to assess taxonomic diversity, but the incompleteness of genetic reference databases prevents the assignation of many sequences to a given species. Functional diversity (FD) is a key biodiversity facet to monitor, but it requires the identification of all species within communities to ...

Evaluating the potential of DNA metabarcoding for ecological status assessment under the Water Framework Directive: A case study on benthic invertebrates from Western Carpathian streams [PDF]
Routine biomonitoring under the Water Framework Directive (WFD) follows a conventional methodology primarily based on the morphological identification of taxa within the five biological quality elements (phytoplankton, phytobenthos, macrozoobenthos ...

DNA metabarcoding for high-throughput monitoring of estuarine macrobenthic communities [PDF]
Morphology-based profling of benthic communities has been extensively applied to aquatic ecosystems’ health assessment. However, it remains a low-throughput, and sometimes ambiguous, procedure.

Stormwater ponds are used to compensate for the adverse effects that road runoff might have on the natural environment. Depending on their design and placement, stormwater ponds can act as both refugia and traps for local biodiversity.
