Meta-analysis shows both congruence and complementarity of DNA and eDNA metabarcoding to traditional methods for biological community assessment

Francois Keck et al.

Summary: DNA metabarcoding provides consistent richness estimates with traditional methods for aquatic community assessment, particularly in fish. However, there are pronounced differences between DNA metabarcoding and traditional methods for plankton, microphytobenthos, and macroinvertebrates, with DNA metabarcoding missing some taxa but also detecting otherwise overlooked diversity.

Efficiency of eDNA and iDNA in assessing vertebrate diversity and its abundance

Carolina S. Carvalho et al.

Summary: Environmental DNA (eDNA) and invertebrate-derived DNA (iDNA) are viewed as powerful tools for biodiversity assessment and conservation management. In assessing fish diversity, eDNA is shown to be more efficient than conventional methods, with higher correlation between eDNA data and fish abundance in laboratory experiments. Conducting more comparative studies is needed for other samplers, vertebrate groups, and tropical zones.

Characterizing the spatial signal of environmental DNA in river systems using a community ecology approach

Isabel Cantera et al.

Summary: Environmental DNA (eDNA) is increasingly popular among scientists, but its applicability in river systems is limited by the lack of knowledge about the downstream transport of eDNA. However, eDNA inventories have been shown to effectively retrieve spatial patterns of fish assemblages in Neotropical rivers. The spatial signal gathered from eDNA is comparable to that from local capture-based methods, providing important information about local fish assemblages.

The Multiple States of Environmental DNA and What Is Knownabout Their Persistence in Aquatic Environments

Quentin Mauvisseau et al.

Summary: The increased use of environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis for species detection has highlighted the need to understand the persistence of eDNA in the environment. However, there is a lack of research on eDNA conversion rates and decay in different states, as well as the measurement of environmental parameters. Further study is needed to determine how these parameters affect eDNA state conversion and decay, and to develop analytical controls for assessing potential losses of different eDNA states in water samples.

Can we manage fisheries with the inherent uncertainty from eDNA?

Christopher L. Jerde

Summary: Environmental DNA (eDNA) is a general approach in aquatic systems that aims to infer species' physical presence through the presence of genetic material in the water. However, compared to traditional methods, eDNA approaches have more sources of error that may lead to false positives. By evaluating eDNA research programs and concurrently searching for fish using traditional gears, confidence in the eDNA approach can be built.

Kevin D. Lafferty et al.

Summary: At Palmyra Atoll, the eDNA signal on tidal sand flats was correlated with fish biomass density and detected 98%-100% of the expected species diversity. Although eDNA was found in different habitats, species associated with reefs contributed more eDNA to reef sites, while species linked to sand flats contributed more to sand-flat sites. The tidal effect did not disturb the eDNA signal in sand-flat habitats. At least 25 samples provided a coverage >97.5% in this diverse tropical marine system.

Summary: As climate change progresses, species are moving towards the poles while subtropical and tropical species are entering temperate environments. The Community Temperature Index (CTI) has been widely used to track the mean thermal affinity of a community, showing an increase under global warming. However, this increase is not solely due to the rise in warm-affinity species, but also linked to the decrease in cold-affinity species. Tropicalization is more pronounced in warmer areas that have experienced greater warming, while deborealization is stronger in areas closer to human populations or with higher thermal diversity in the community.
