    • Environmental DNA metabarcoding as an effective and rapid tool for fish monitoring in canals 

      McDevitt, Allan D; Sales, Naiara Guimaraes; Browett, Samuel S.; Sparnenn, Abbie O.; Mariani, Stefano; Wangensteen Fuentes, Owen Simon; Coscia, Ilaria; Benvenuto, Chiara (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-06-10)
      We focus on a case study along an English canal comparing environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding with two types of electrofishing techniques (wade‐and‐reach and boom‐boat). In addition to corroborating data obtained by electrofishing, eDNA provided a wider snapshot of fish assemblages. Given the semi‐lotic nature of canals, we encourage the use of eDNA as a fast and cost‐effective tool to detect and ...

    • Metabarcoding of shrimp stomach content: harnessing a natural sampler for fish biodiversity monitoring 

      Siegenthaler, Andjin; Wangensteen Fuentes, Owen Simon; Soto, Ana Z.; Benvenuto, Chiara; Corrigan, Laura; Mariani, Stefano (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-10-28)
      Given their positioning and biological productivity, estuaries have long represented key providers of ecosystem services, and consequently remain under remarkable pressure from numerous forms of anthropogenic impact. The monitoring of fish communities in space and time are one of the most widespread and established approaches to assess the ecological status of estuaries and other coastal habitats, ...

    • Niche separation between two dominant crustacean predators in European estuarine soft-bottom habitats 

      Siegenthaler, Andjin; Wangensteen, Owen S.; Benvenuto, Chiara; Lollobrigidi, Riccardo; Mariani, Stefano (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-05)
      Epibenthic predators in estuarine shallow soft-bottom environments are generally considered to have broad ecological niches with a wide overlap. This allows them to cope with abundant but highly variable prey communities. The assessment of trophic relationships in shallow soft-bottom habitats is, however, challenging and often complicated by the bias and low resolution of the analytical tools available ...
