Advancing aquatic biodiversity assessments of invertebrates using eDNA metabarcoding: A systematic evaluation of primers for marine and freshwater communities

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, Page 2408-2430, October 2025.
Abstract Invertebrate richness and community composition are key indicators of aquatic ecosystem health. Compared with morphotaxonomy‐based survey methods, DNA metabarcoding is a highly efficient and scalable biomonitoring approach that has become increasingly used in invertebrate surveys.

Sedimentary DNA Metabarcoding and Indigenous Knowledge Reconstruct Natural and Anthropogenic Disturbances to a Freshwater Lake in the Oil Sands Region of Alberta, Canada

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 4, July–August 2025.
The study uses environmental DNA embedded in lake sediment cores to reconstruct historical community composition of eukaryotic functional trophic groups. Cowpar Lake is located in the Athabasca Oil Sands region that has experienced natural and anthropogenic impacts.

Pollution and the abundance of plankton in Rangkui River in Bangka Island

Journal of Natural Resources and Environmental Management
Land use and activity around the Rangkui Watershed affect water quality, and plankton have been studied to help manage the river's water quality. In the 2017 dry season, six station points representing land use functions from upstream to downstream were

Use of eDNA and conventional sampling methods to survey rock pool (gnamma) biodiversity on granite inselbergs

Austral Ecology, Volume 49, Issue 8, August 2024.
Environmental DNA sampling coupled with high‐throughput sequencing is increasingly recognized as a useful method for assessing biodiversity with potential applications in terrestrial environments. Rock pools on granite inselbergs support diverse aquatic communities, yet the application of eDNA to document their biodiversity is lacking.

Seasonal dynamics of the littoral zooplankton groups of the Uday River within the National Nature Park "Pyryatynsky"

Biosystems Diversity, 2017
The increase in anthropogenic impact on aquatic ecosystems causes significant alterations in the composition and structure of hydrobiont groups. These processes are characteristic of the hydrobiocenoses of the Uday River, the valley of which lies within ...
