Filters and freshwater sponge tissue recover a comparable number of taxa through eDNA metabarcoding. Filters detect more taxa, followed by sponge tissue when host‐blocking primers are used. Each method reveals different community compositions, so combining both approaches is recommended to achieve a more realistic representation of the metazoan ...

Assessment of Preservation and Extraction Methods for Environmental DNA in Sediments
We assessed how different preservation methods (freezing, room temperature, silica gel, Longmire buffer) affect eDNA metabarcoding results for bacterial, fungal, microeukaryotic, and metazoan communities in marine and freshwater sediments. Results demonstrate taxonomic‐ and habitat‐specific responses to preservation methods, providing evidence‐based ...

On the phylogenetic position of Myzostomida: can 77 genes get it wrong? [PDF]
Background Phylogenomic analyses recently became popular to address questions about deep metazoan phylogeny. Ribosomal proteins (RP) dominate many of these analyses or are, in some cases, the only genes included.

There are many environmental DNA (eDNA) sources within and around a seabird nest. These DNA traces from soil, plant material, feathers, feces, and other nest components enable detection of a wide range of taxa, including plants, fungi, insects, arachnids, mollusks, reptiles, and other vertebrates. Here, we used DNA from nest box feces to obtain signals

Fourty seven specimens of Pelophylax ridibundus were collected in the vicinity of Shiraz, Fars Province, Iran in 1972. Fourteen helminth species were found, eight digeneans (Diplodiscus subclavatus, Halipegus alhaussaini, Haematoloechus similis ...

Two helminth‐rodent networks were analyzed for two distinct areas. Network modularity, nestedness, and degree of specialization were calculated for each network. Higher network modularity than nestedness and high network specialization were observed in both networks, suggesting functional and/or taxonomic specialization between helminth species and ...

Drivers of Microbiome Composition Among Helminth Parasites Sharing the Same Insectivorous Bat Host
ABSTRACT Parasitic metazoans are increasingly recognised to form close associations with microbial taxa. Under the holobiont concept, these associations are an eco‐evolutionary unit under joint selection. However, for most parasitic helminth species and particularly those associated with wildlife, these interactions and their effect on parasite ...
