Efficacy of metabarcoding for identification of fish eggs evaluated with mock communities [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
There is urgent need for effective and efficient monitoring of marine fish populations. Monitoring eggs and larval fish may be more informative than that traditional fish surveys since ichthyoplankton surveys reveal the reproductive activities of fish ...

Differences in microbiota between two multilocus lineages of the sugarcane Aphid (Melanaphis sacchari) in the continental United States [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The sugarcane aphid (SCA), Melanaphis Sacchari (Zehntner) (Hemiptera: Aphididae), has been considered an invasive pest of sugarcane in the continental United States since 1977. Then, in 2013, SCA abruptly became a serious pest of U.S.

An Illumina metabarcoding pipeline for fungi [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2014
AbstractHigh‐throughput metabarcoding studies on fungi and other eukaryotic microorganisms are rapidly becoming more frequent and more complex, requiring researchers to handle ever increasing amounts of raw sequence data. Here, we provide a flexible pipeline for pruning and analyzing fungal barcode (ITS rDNA) data generated as paired‐end reads on ...

Comparison of mechanical sorting and DNA metabarcoding for diet analysis with fresh and degraded wolf scats

open access: yesEcosphere, 2021
DNA metabarcoding has become a powerful technique for identifying the species present in a bulk environmental sample. The application of DNA metabarcoding to wildlife diet analysis is a particularly promising tool for exploring trophic interactions.

Proper environmental DNA metabarcoding data transformation reveals temporal stability of fish communities in a dendritic river system

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, 2021
Protecting freshwater biodiversity is considered an ultimate challenge but depends on reliable surveys of species distribution and abundance which eDNA metabarcoding (environmental DNA metabarcoding) may offer.

Persisting roadblocks in arthropod monitoring using non-destructive metabarcoding from collection media of passive traps [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2023
Background Broad-scale monitoring of arthropods is often carried out with passive traps (e.g., Malaise traps) that can collect thousands of specimens per sample.

Mock community experiments can inform on the reliability of eDNA metabarcoding data: a case study on marine phytoplankton

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Environmental DNA metabarcoding is increasingly implemented in biodiversity monitoring, including phytoplankton studies. Using 21 mock communities composed of seven unicellular diatom and dinoflagellate algae, assembled with different composition and ...

A Comparative Analyzing of Zooplankton Community Diversity in Surface Layer Water of Reservoir Via eDNA Metabarcoding and Microscopy

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
We compared two sampling methods, eDNA metabarcoding and microscope identification (MSI), for the analysis of zooplankton diversity in reservoirs with its inflow and outflow streams. The dynamic patterns of Cladocera and Rotifera at different time points

DNA metabarcoding quantifies the relative biomass of arthropod taxa in songbird diets: Validation with camera‐recorded diets

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Ecological research is often hampered by the inability to quantify animal diets. Diet composition can be tracked through DNA metabarcoding of fecal samples, but whether (complex) diets can be quantitatively determined with metabarcoding is still debated ...
