Quantitative insights into the spatio‐temporal variation of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) biomass in a river catchment using eDNA metabarcoding

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Effective species conservation and management requires comprehensive biomonitoring, enhanced by combining traditional and newer methodologies, such as environmental DNA (eDNA) analyses. A seasonal pulse of spawning adult Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) was detected by normalised eDNA 12S reads from metabarcoding, which facilitated estimation of ...

‘It's not much, but it's honest work’: The status of environmental DNA analyses of fish biodiversity in southern Africa

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Environmental DNA (eDNA) biodiversity surveys have the power to transform the detection of species in natural environments, which is crucial for the conservation and management of freshwater, estuarine and marine environments. Globally, eDNA‐based analyses have increased significantly, with fishes being the most widely studied aquatic ...

The evaluation of shotgun sequencing and rpoB metabarcoding for taxonomic profiling of bacterial communities

BMC Microbiology
Background The importance of microbial community profiling has been increasingly recognized in biological and environmental research. While metabarcoding has been widely used for such analysis by targeting specific DNA sequences as markers, shotgun ...

Deciphering the complex life cycle and partial migration of an ecological engineer and critical Neotropical fishery species, Prochilodus costatus

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding complex migration patterns, including drivers of partial migration and habitat use, is challenging but essential for conservation, as it determines a species' adaptative capacity in the face of environmental change and anthropogenic threats.

Validating gut flushing as a non‐lethal sampling technique for diet monitoring in agastric fish

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Non‐lethal diet sampling is essential where individual‐level monitoring and welfare matter, yet evidence on season‐long outcomes in agastric fishes is scarce. We tested syringe‐based gut flushing in pond‐reared common carp Cyprinus carpio over one growing season (April–September) using PIT‐tagged fish assigned a priori to three handling ...

Rapid increase in abundance and distribution of invasive pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) within a diverse, large Barents Sea catchment

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Pink salmon originate from the North Pacific area but were introduced into northwest Russia from the late 1950s onwards. Since 2017, the alien species has increased dramatically in abundance and rapidly invaded adjacent areas of the North Atlantic region.

Rapid Clearance of Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae Spores by Freshwater Sponge Ephydatia muelleri: Potential Implications for Controlling Proliferative Kidney Disease in Salmonids

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Host–parasite interactions are influenced by both abiotic and biotic factors. While abiotic drivers, particularly temperature, have received considerable attention in recent years due to global climate change, the role of biotic factors remains comparatively underexplored.

LIFEPLAN Malaise sample metabarcoding v1

In Project LIFEPLAN, bulk samples of arthropods are collected with Malaise traps and the species are identified with a non-destructive COI metabarcoding process. This protocol describes the steps for lysis, DNA extraction, PCR amplification, library construction, sequencing and sequence analysis, going from bulk arthropod samples to COI sequences ...

Understanding marine biodiversity patterns and drivers: The fall of Icarus

Marine Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity patterns are fundamental in our understanding of the distribution of life, ecosystem function, and conservation. In this concept analysis, A survey of the existing knowledge on marine biodiversity patterns and drivers across latitudes, longitudes, and depths indicates that none of the postulated patterns represent a rule.
