Environmental DNA (eDNA) is genetic material that has been shed from macroorganisms. It
has received increased attention as an indirect marker for biodiversity monitoring. This …

We reviewed the current methodology and practices of the DNA metabarcoding approach
using a universal PCR primer pair MiFish, which co-amplifies a short fragment of fish DNA …

DNA metabarcoding is increasingly used for the assessment of aquatic communities, and
numerous studies have investigated the consistency of this technique with traditional …

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

Marine biodiversity can be surveyed using underwater visual censuses and recently with
eDNA metabarcoding. Although a promising tool, eDNA studies have shown contrasting …

While many studies have considered the ability of eDNA to assess animal communities in
lacustrine settings, fewer have considered riverine systems, particularly those spanning the …

Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding has been used to study fish diversity in various
aquatic ecosystems. However, studies on fish community structure in estuarine ecosystems …

Mangroves provide valuable ecological and socio-economic services. The importance of
mangroves is particularly evident in Southeast (SE) Asia where the most extensive and …

To test the feasibility of a citizen science program for fish eDNA metabarcoding in coastal
marine environments, we recruited six groups of voluntary citizens for a science education …

In recent years, biodiversity loss has become one of the most serious environmental issues
worldwide, especially in aquatic ecosystems. To avoid diversity loss, it is necessary to …
