Using fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the animal diet of black rails, yellow rails, and soras
Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue 3, September 2025.We used fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the diet of yellow rails, Eastern black rails, and sora during the non‐breeding season. Arthropods, particularly ants, were prevalent in their diets, suggesting possible interactions with invasive red imported fire ants.

Using oligochaeta assemblages as an indicator of environmental changes
Brazilian Journal of BiologyWe designed a field survey (the entire river length; not dammed: First and Second plateaus; dammed: Third Plateau) to test the hypothesis that the cascade of reservoirs promoted a reduction in species richness and changed the composition of Oligochaeta ...

Molecular barcoding of aquatic oligochaetes: implications for biomonitoring. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Aquatic oligochaetes are well recognized bioindicators of quality of sediments and water in watercourses and lakes. However, the difficult taxonomic determination based on morphological features compromises their more common use in eco-diagnostic ...

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 4, July–August 2025.Differentiation between sympatric Astatotilapia calliptera ecotypes using dietary metabarcoding reveal presence of resource partitioning. ABSTRACT Sympatric speciation is defined as the formation of new species in the absence of geographic barriers, but the genomic and life history strategy mechanisms underpinning sympatric speciation are still far ...

Ecohydrology, Volume 18, Issue 2, March 2025.ABSTRACT Lakes are vital ecosystems serving as reservoirs of biodiversity and are key indicators of environmental changes. This study examined the macroinvertebrate community structure and environmental parameters of Lake Uzungöl, a Special Environmental Protection Area in Türkiye, over a 10‐year period (2012–2022).
