This study integrates eDNA metabarcoding into an estuarine fish index to assess ecological status, finding that eDNA detects higher species richness but differs in species assemblages compared to bottom trawling.

This paper combines eDNA and acoustic-trawl data using a Bayesian joint model to estimate fish biomass, showing eDNA suggests broader distribution and potentially higher abundance of European anchovy.

This study identifies the mesopelagic fish and cephalopod species consumed by rorquals and sperm whales using environmental and faecal DNA, revealing their foraging strategies and trophic roles.

This study uses eDNA sampling and qPCR/dPCR assays to monitor diadromous fish distribution in the Northeast Atlantic, finding dPCR's higher sensitivity is crucial for detecting low-abundance species like sea lamprey.

This paper develops a DNA metabarcoding method to analyze fish stomach contents, improving trophic interaction data collection for ecosystem-based fisheries management.
