Validating COI eDNA Metabarcoding Primers for Detection of Subterranean Fauna. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT Subterranean ecosystems host a diverse range of ancient fauna, but studying these ecosystems is challenging due to significant sampling difficulties. Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding offers a promising approach for monitoring subterranean biodiversity, yet issues such as primer bias and non‐target amplification can complicate its ...

Spatial habitat partitioning enables coexistence of three Gobiidae species in estuarine environments. [PDF]

J Fish Biol
Abstract This study examines resource partitioning (feeding morphology, diet and habitat partitioning) among three gobiid species, the Knysna sandgoby Psammogobius knysnaensis, the prison goby Caffrogobius gilchristi and the river goby Glossogobius callidus, within an estuarine environment.

Temperature and Prey Availability Drive Seasonal Variations in Diet, Abundance and Condition of <i>Forsterygion lapillum</i> Across Two Coastal Habitats. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study investigated how temperature, turbidity and prey availability affect the diet, body condition and abundance of F. lapillum in two coastal ecosystems. Results showed seasonal and spatial variation, with body condition, abundance and gut volume positively correlated with warmer temperatures but not with turbidity.

Shared and Unique Patterns of Genomic Differentiation and Introgression Between Japanese Stickleback Species Across Three Sympatric Sites. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Hybridization and introgression frequently occur even between distantly related species. A central question in speciation research is which genomic regions act as barriers to gene flow and how genome‐wide differentiation persists despite hybridization between species.
