A decade after environmental scientists integrated high‐throughput sequencing
technologies in their toolbox, the genomics‐based monitoring of anthropogenic impacts on …

Abstract Characterization of species diversity of zooplankton is key to understanding,
assessing, and predicting the function and future of pelagic ecosystems throughout the …

Environmental DNA metabarcoding is a powerful tool for studying biodiversity. However,
bioinformatic approaches need to adjust to the diversity of taxonomic compartments targeted …

Increasing interest in the acquisition of biotic and abiotic resources from within the deep sea
(eg, fisheries, oil–gas extraction, and mining) urgently imposes the development of novel …

Human activities, such as land use change and eutrophication, threaten freshwater
biodiversity and ecosystem function. In this study, we examined both the α-and β-diversity of …

In the marine realm, biomonitoring using environmental DNA (eDNA) of benthic
communities requires destructive direct sampling or the setting‐up of settlement structures …

Metabarcoding is by now a well‐established method for biodiversity assessment in
terrestrial, freshwater, and marine environments. Metabarcoding data sets are usually used …

Ichthyoplankton monitoring is crucial for stock assessments, offering insights into spawning
grounds, stock size, seasons, recruitment, and changes in regional ichthyofauna. This study …

DNA metabarcoding is an increasingly popular technique to investigate biodiversity;
however, many methodological unknowns remain, especially concerning the biases …

Despite representing one of the largest biomes on earth, biodiversity of the deep seafloor is
still poorly known. Environmental DNA metabarcoding offers prospects for fast inventories …
