Improving Whole Biodiversity Monitoring and Discovery With Environmental DNA Metagenomics. [PDF]
Mol Ecol ResourABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) metagenomics sequences all DNA molecules present in environmental samples and has the potential of identifying virtually any organism from which they are derived. However, due to unacceptable levels of false positives and negatives, this approach is underexplored as a tool for biodiversity monitoring across the tree of

Exploring Prey Selectivity and Feeding Habits of Wels Catfish (<i>Silurus glanis</i> L., 1758) in a Deep Anatolian Reservoir: Seasonal, Length, and Age-Dependent Diet Analysis. [PDF]
Aquac NutrFeeding habits and dietary preferences of wels catfish (Silurus glanis) were investigated in Sıddıklı Dam Lake through the examination of 200 individuals. The results revealed that the species predominantly exhibited piscivorous feeding characteristics, with Tinca tinca (IRI% = 78.93) identified as the primary food source. The food items in the stomach
