Vast global declines of freshwater and marine fish diversity and population abundance pose
serious threats to both ecosystem sustainability and human livelihoods. Environmental DNA …

Conservation of marine ecosystems has been highlighted as a priority to ensure a
sustainable future. Effective management requires data collection over large spatio-temporal …

All species inevitably leave genetic traces in their environments, and the resulting
environmental DNA (eDNA) reflects the species present in a given habitat. It remains …

The rapid growth in genomic techniques provides the potential to transform how we protect,
manage, and conserve marine life. Further, solutions to boost the resilience of marine …

Environmental DNA (eDNA) detection methods can complement traditional biomonitoring to
yield new ecological insights in aquatic systems. However, the conceptual and …

Metabarcoding of environmental DNA is increasingly used for biodiversity assessments in
aquatic communities. The efficiency and outcome of these efforts are dependent upon either …

Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is an effective method for studying fish
communities but allows only an estimation of relative species abundance (density/biomass) …

Environmental DNA (eDNA) data make it possible to measure and monitor biodiversity at
unprecedented resolution and scale. As use‐cases multiply and scientific consensus grows …

The development of environmental DNA (eDNA) methods toward implementation as a cost‐
effective, nonlethal tool for fish biomonitoring in lotic environments requires insights on the …

The accurate extraction of species‐abundance information from DNA‐based data
(metabarcoding, metagenomics) could contribute usefully to diet analysis and food‐web …
