MiFish, a set of universal PCR primers for metabarcoding environmental DNA from fishes: detection of more than 230 subtropical marine species.
Masaki Miya,Yukuto Sato,Tsukasa Fukunaga,Tetsuya Sado,J. Y. Poulsen,Keiichi Sato,Toshifumi Minamoto,Satoshi Yamamoto,Hiroki Yamanaka,Hitoshi Araki,Michio Kondoh,Wataru Iwasaki +11 more
TL;DR: The metabarcoding approach presented here is non-invasive, more efficient, more cost-effective and more sensitive than the traditional survey methods and has the potential to serve as an alternative tool for biodiversity monitoring that revolutionizes natural resource management and ecological studies of fish communities on larger spatial and temporal scales.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimation of fish biomass using environmental DNA.
TL;DR: An eDNA method to estimate the biomass of common carp using laboratory and field experiments and demonstrates that the distribution of carp eDNA concentration was explained by water temperature, suggesting that biomass data estimated from e DNA concentration reflects the potential distribution ofCommon carp in the natural environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using Environmental DNA to Estimate the Distribution of an Invasive Fish Species in Ponds
TL;DR: The eDNA method simply and rapidly detects the presence of the invasive bluegill sunfish with less disturbance to the environment during field surveys than traditional methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental DNA metabarcoding reveals local fish communities in a species-rich coastal sea
Satoshi Yamamoto,Reiji Masuda,Yukuto Sato,Tetsuya Sado,Hitoshi Araki,Michio Kondoh,Toshifumi Minamoto,Masaki Miya +7 more
TL;DR: The ability of eDNA metabarcoding to reveal fish community structures in species-rich coastal waters by using high-performance fish-universal primers and systematic spatial water sampling at 47 stations covering ~11 km2 revealed the fish community structure at a species resolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental DNA analysis for estimating the abundance and biomass of stream fish
Hideyuki Doi,Ryutei Inui,Yoshihisa Akamatsu,Kazuki Kanno,Hiroki Yamanaka,Teruhiko Takahara,Toshifumi Minamoto +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that eDNA analysis is a useful tool to estimate fish abundance/biomass as well as their spatial distribution in rivers.
