Environmental DNA metabarcoding: transforming how we survey animal and plant communities
Kristy Deiner,Holly M. Bik,Elvira Mächler,Elvira Mächler,Mathew Seymour,Anaïs Lacoursière-Roussel,Florian Altermatt,Florian Altermatt,Simon Creer,Iliana Bista,Iliana Bista,David M. Lodge,Natasha de Vere,Michael E. Pfrender,Louis Bernatchez +14 more
TL;DR: The use of eDNA metabarcoding for surveying animal and plant richness, and the challenges in using eDNA approaches to estimate relative abundance are reviewed, which distill what is known about the ability of different eDNA sample types to approximate richness in space and across time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantifying relative fish abundance with eDNA: a promising tool for fisheries management
TL;DR: The eDNA quantitative method represents a promising population abundance assessment tool that could significantly reduce the costs associated with sampling and increase the power of detection, the spatial coverage and the frequency of sampling, without any negative impacts on fish populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimating fish abundance and biomass from eDNA concentrations: variability among capture methods and environmental conditions.
TL;DR: Results show that fish released more eDNA in warm water than in cold water and that eDNA concentration better reflects fish abundance/biomass at high temperature, which supports the importance of including water temperature in fish abundance and biomass prediction models based on eDNA.
Journal ArticleDOI
eDNA metabarcoding as a new surveillance approach for coastal Arctic biodiversity.
Anaïs Lacoursière-Roussel,Kimberly L. Howland,Eric Normandeau,Erin K. Grey,Philippe Archambault,Kristy Deiner,David M. Lodge,Cecilia Hernandez,Noémie Leduc,Louis Bernatchez +9 more
TL;DR: COI‐based eDNA metabarcoding may quickly improve large‐scale Arctic biomonitoring using eDNA, but it is cautioned that aquatic eDNA sampling needs to be standardized over space and time to accurately evaluate community structure changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hull fouling as an invasion vector: can simple models explain a complex problem?
Francisco Sylvester,Francisco Sylvester,Odion Kalaci,Brian Leung,Anaïs Lacoursière-Roussel,Cathryn Clarke Murray,Francis Choi,Monica A. Bravo,Thomas W. Therriault,Hugh J. MacIsaac +9 more
TL;DR: Hull fouling has a strong potential for introduction of many species to coastal marine habitats and that management should be considered, and simple variables related to the vessels' hull husbandry, voyage, and sailing patterns may be used to predict and manage hull fouling intensity.
