Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Diversity journal is launching a Special Issue dedicated to using eDNA as a tool for aquatic ecology and biodiversity biomonitoring. Environmental DNA technology is gradually maturing and is currently widely used in aquatic ecosystem monitoring and biodiversity surveys worldwide, while research on biodiversity, species conservation, distribution patterns, and ecosystems based on environmental DNA survey results has also been booming.
In this context, this Special Issue focuses on the latest progress of environmental DNA in the aquatic ecology and biodiversity research fields. We will gather the latest research achievements of outstanding scientists from different regions around the world, concentrate on showing the frontier trends of environmental DNA development, and further promote the application of environmental DNA in scientific research and practical protection management.
