Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 6, November–December 2025.Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding of bulk zooplankton from the White and Blue Nile near Khartoum recovered 40 genus/species‐level taxa belonging to Cladocera, Copepoda, and Rotifera, representing 53%–72% of ASVs. Rotifers were the most diverse group, and low Cladocera read counts likely reflect primer mismatch despite similar morphological ...

A comparison of the larvivorous habits of exotic Poecilia reticulata and native Aplocheilus parvus
BMC Ecology, 2018 Background The exotic fish Poecilia reticulata is promoted in the tropics as a biological control agent for aquatic pathogenic carriers, such as mosquitoes. Such control measures are often adopted blindly, ignoring the potential of native species and the

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 3, May–June 2025.Multi‐level eDNA metabarcoding revealed that even slight salinity changes alter the community composition of microorganisms and fish. The effect of salinity on alpha‐diversity was taxa‐dependent. Some potentially harmful microorganisms for fish were found, highlighting the importance of utilizing eDNA for monitoring.

A dataset of individual wet weights of benthic macroinvertebrates
Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 9, Issue 6, Page 696-715, December 2024.Abstract Biomass estimates are crucial for modeling and understanding energy flow through ecosystems. Many modeling frameworks rely on published body weights of organisms to convert density estimates to biomass. However, published body weight data are limited to few taxa in a limited number of systems. Here we present mean individual weights for common

DNA barcoding identifies a cosmopolitan diet in the ocean sunfish
, 2016 The ocean sunfish (Mola mola) is the world’s heaviest bony fish reaching a body mass of up to 2.3 tonnes. However, the prey M. mola consumes to fuel this prodigious growth remains poorly known.

Environmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 4, July–August 2024.Prey are an important driver of fine‐scale habitat use by marine mammals, but their distributions are often poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that eDNA metabarcoding can reveal fine‐scale spatiotemporal differences in cetacean distributions and their key prey species, including spatial partitioning between sympatric cetacean species with ...

Duurzame Schelpdiertransporten [PDF]
, 2009 Er worden regelmatig schelpdieren geïmporteerd uit verschillende landen naar de Nederlandse kustwateren ten behoeve van de schelpdiercultuur. Met de import van schelpdieren bestaat de kans dat er onbedoeld ongewenste organismen zoals exoten, ziektes en ...
