Monitoring terrestrial rewilding with environmental DNA metabarcoding: a systematic review of current trends and recommendations

Frontiers in Conservation Science, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 5

Published: Jan. 2, 2025

Introduction Rewilding, the facilitation of self-sustaining and resilient ecosystems by restoring natural processes, is an increasingly popular conservation approach potential solution to biodiversity climate crises. Outcomes rewilding can be unpredictable, monitoring essential determine whether are recovering. Metabarcoding, particularly environmental DNA (eDNA), revolutionizing could play important role in understanding impacts but has mostly been applied within aquatic systems. Methods This systematic review focuses on applications eDNA metabarcoding terrestrial monitoring, with additional insights from bulk ingested DNA. We examine publication trends, choice sampling substrate focal taxa, investigate how well performs compared other methods (e.g. camera trapping). Results Terrestrial represented a small proportion total papers, forests most studied system, soil water substrates, vertebrates targeted taxa. Most studies focused measuring species richness, few included analyzes functional diversity. Greater richness was found when using multiple took this approach. Metabarcoding did not consistently outperform terms number vertebrate taxa detected, likely influenced marker, habitat. Discussion Our findings indicate that metabarcoding, eDNA, key rewilding, further ground- truthing needed establish appropriate experimental pipelines for target system interest.

Pond Water eDNA Reflects Broad Consistency with Surrounding Terrestrial Plant Ecosystems

Biology, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 14(1), P. 62 - 62

Published: Jan. 13, 2025

This study evaluates the potential of using pond water eDNA to reflect surrounding terrestrial plant communities, aiming develop a sustainable, large-scale, and long-term monitoring method for diversity in forest ecosystems. Water samples were collected four times from two ponds with different vegetation types during late spring autumn seasons Japan. was extracted dissolved particles fractionated by sequential filtration through pore sizes 200 µm, 5 0.45 followed high-throughput amplicon sequencing targeting rbcL gene. By comparing field surveys data, we identified 79% 63% families genera, respectively, suggesting that may ecosystem. Additionally, trends observed seasonal variation taxa their composition detected eDNA, based on particle size. highlights provide valuable insights into richness dynamics, offering novel approach ecological monitoring.
