Insights in Pharmaceutical Pollution: The Prospective Role of eDNA Metabarcoding. [PDF]

Toxics, 2023
Environmental pollution is a growing threat to natural ecosystems and one of the world’s most pressing concerns. The increasing worldwide use of pharmaceuticals has elevated their status as significant emerging contaminants. Pharmaceuticals enter aquatic environments through multiple pathways related to anthropogenic activity.

Combining Time-Stamped Insect Sampling With eDNA-Metabarcoding of Guano to Reconstruct Community Interactions. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
ABSTRACT Understanding the temporal dynamics of predator–prey interactions is the basis for predicting behavioral responses to climate or other environmental changes. Bats, as generalist apex predators, can provide a holistic view on ecosystem health, because their diet integrates signals from diverse insect communities and rapidly reflects ...

Validating COI eDNA Metabarcoding Primers for Detection of Subterranean Fauna. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT Subterranean ecosystems host a diverse range of ancient fauna, but studying these ecosystems is challenging due to significant sampling difficulties. Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding offers a promising approach for monitoring subterranean biodiversity, yet issues such as primer bias and non‐target amplification can complicate its ...

A Field-Deployable eDNA Metabarcoding Workflow Including De Novo Reference Assembly for Characterising Understudied Biodiversity Hotspots. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT Field‐deployable DNA metabarcoding offers a transformative approach to biodiversity research and monitoring, yet its application remains limited due to technical constraints and a lack of reference data in poorly studied ecosystems. Combining isothermal Recombinase Polymerase Amplification (RPA) and Oxford Nanopore sequencing, we introduce a ...

Accounting for Intra- and Intergenomic Sequence Variation in Reference Barcodes Improves eDNA Metabarcoding Biodiversity Assessment. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding can rapidly characterise biodiversity, yet its accuracy and effectiveness are limited by incomplete DNA barcode reference databases. We evaluated how comprehensive reference databases that include sequence variation within genomes (intragenomic) and across individuals and species (intergenomic) improve ...
