This study shows spiders can effectively sample arthropod DNA from their gut contents, revealing community diversity and biotic interactions comparable to traditional methods and preserving historical data up to 20 years.

This study uses eDNA metabarcoding to monitor biodiversity across aquatic habitats, finding it provides more species data at lower cost than traditional methods.

This study compares bulk DNA metabarcoding and environmental DNA (eDNA) methods for assessing arthropod diversity in three Guam habitats, finding both methods detect significant taxa with eDNA offering a non-destructive alternative.

The paper reports the genome of Candidatus Argioplasma dusa, a spider symbiont, and finds it has a small genome with limited biosynthetic capabilities, suggesting an endosymbiotic lifestyle.

The paper presents genome assemblies for two closely related widow spider species, L. hasselti and L. katipo, and reports their gene content and repeat composition.

This paper introduces a field-deployable eDNA metabarcoding workflow that generates reference sequences to improve biodiversity monitoring in understudied ecosystems.

The paper analyzes soil biodiversity changes over 20 years in Germany, finding no significant trends in alpha or beta diversity but taxon-specific compositional restructuring.
