Development of an environmental DNA metabarcoding assay for aquatic vascular plant communities

Abstract: Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcodes allow for the simultaneous detection of multiple taxa if the barcode regions meet several key requirements including conserved primer‐binding sites, interspecific variability that exceeds intraspecific variability, and relatively short amplicons. Currently, there are no established metabarcoding assays for aquatic vascular plants, which could limit biodiversity assessments and the early detection of alien species. We used a combination of novel and pre‐existing primers to … Show more

“…In fact, Potamogeton crispus, a common submerged plant, was detected at three sites, although it could not be found visually during the field sampling. Distribution survey is essential for the conservation of rare aquatic plants, however, it is difficult to find them because of their submerged nature and aquatic habitats are often hard to approach (Kuzmina et al, 2018;Coghlan et al, 2020). eDNA metabarcoding using a short marker will quickly inform on the distribution of rare aquatic plants and provide useful information for their conservation.…”

“…Recently, the environmental DNA (eDNA) survey was developed as an efficient and sensitive approach to determine the distribution of rare aquatic species (Thomsen and Willerslev, 2015). Several studies applied the eDNA survey to aquatic plants and successfully detected the target species among collected samples in aquariums, rivers, and ponds (Scriver et al, 2015;Fujiwara et al, 2016;Matsuhashi et al, 2016;Gantz et al, 2018;Kuzmina et al, 2018;Anglès d'Auriac et al, 2019;Chase et al, 2020;Coghlan et al, 2020;Doi et al, 2020;Kuehne et al, 2020;Miyazono et al, 2020). Some of these works report the detection of some populations that had not been recorded using conventional observation (Matsuhashi et al, 2016;Kuzmina et al, 2018;Miyazono et al, 2020).…”

“…Finally, ASVs with 10 sequences or fewer were removed from our future BLAST analysis to limit sequencing and assignment errors (40). Taxonomic assignment for the remaining unique ASVs was completed using BLASTn and the NCBI nt database.…”

“…Total DNA extracted from the living belowground plant tissues can considerably improve our understanding of the community organization, dynamics and diversity [ 6 , 19 ]. A growing number of biologists are using metabarcoding DNA for plants detection in a given environmental sample [ 24 , 25 , 26 ]. The internal transcribed spacer (ITS2 ) subunit region has been often employed for plant metabarcoding as it has potentially high resolution at the genus and species level [ 26 , 27 ].…”
