High‐Throughput Sequencing in Aquaculture Disease Investigations: Challenges and Opportunities for Implementation

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 4, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The current generation of sequencing technologies can produce terabases of data with exceptional accuracy and speed, at a fraction of the cost of older methods. Despite this unprecedented power, adoption into aquaculture health management presents several challenges, including identifying where such capability may be optimally deployed.

Unveiling Vertebrate Biodiversity in Arid and Semi‐Arid Terrestrial Ecosystems Through eDNA Metabarcoding at Savanna Waterholes

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications
Applying environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding to samples from waterholes and their surroundings offers a promising approach for monitoring terrestrial vertebrates in semi‐arid and arid ecosystems, such as the southern African savannas. However, minimal

Optimising the Detection of Southern Toadlets (Pseudophryne semimarmorata): A Comparative Study of eDNA and Conventional Survey Methods

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Accurate and reliable monitoring of amphibians is essential for informing their conservation. Pseudophryne semimarmorata (southern toadlet) is a species of endangered brood frog with a largely terrestrial life history that has experienced widespread decline across southern Australia.

Enhancing Intra‐Specific Population Genetic Studies of Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) in Irish Waters by Integrating Least Invasive Sampling and Environmental DNA (eDNA)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Three populations of bottlenose dolphins are found in Irish waters. This study used direct sampling methods to expand the sample size and confirm the distinctiveness of these populations, including a range expansion outside of the Shannon Estuary SAC.

Persistence of marine fish environmental DNA and the influence of sunlight.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Harnessing information encoded in environmental DNA (eDNA) in marine waters has the potential to revolutionize marine biomonitoring. Whether using organism-specific quantitative PCR assays or metabarcoding in conjunction with amplicon sequencing ...

Spatial Factors Outweigh Environmental Variables in Explaining Fish Beta Diversity Within A Massive Anthropogenically Homogenized Water‐Transfer Canal

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
In physically unobstructed and homogenized artificial ecosystems, dispersal limitation driven by geographic distance and unique hydraulic conditions replace environmental filtering as the primary deterministic process shaping diversity patterns. Furthermore, significant regulatory effects of food resources through trophic cascades reinforce this ...

Capture—Incubate—Release: An Animal‐Friendly Approach to Assess Local Aquatic Macroinvertebrate Species Diversity Through Environmental DNA Metabarcoding

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA
Metabarcoding of environmental DNA (eDNA) from water samples has become an important tool for aquatic biodiversity assessment because it is minimally invasive, time‐efficient, and generates comprehensive taxa lists.

Comparative analysis of eDNA metabarcoding and eDNA metagenomics for fish biodiversity estimates using standard and novel filtration methods [PDF]

open access: yesMetabarcoding and Metagenomics
Molecular techniques involving environmental DNA (eDNA) are increasingly used for aquatic species detection. Metabarcoding, a widely adopted technique, suffers from primer bias: uneven amplification of species due to primer mismatches. Primer bias can be

Detection of charophyte algae (Characeae) in lakes using eDNA metabarcoding

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation
Detection of charophyte algae (Characeae) and identification to species level is important for biodiversity conservation and ecological status assessment, and environmental DNA (eDNA) might enable fast and replicable species detection. The aims of our study were to evaluate the performance of the rbcL gene marker in detecting eDNA of Characeae and to ...
