Environmental DNA can act as a biodiversity barometer of anthropogenic pressures in coastal ecosystems

Environmental DNA can act as a biodiversity barometer of anthropogenic pressures in coastal ecosystems

Loss of biodiversity from lower to upper trophic levels reduces overall productivity and stability of coastal ecosystems in our oceans, but rarely are these changes documented across both time and space. The characterisation of environmental DNA (eDNA) from sediment and seawater using metabarcoding...
