A strong relationship between environmental DNA metabarcoding and rank-based abundance of fish

Joanne E. Littlefair, Lauren D. Hayhurst, Matthew C. Yates…·Melania E. Cristescu

The paper examines the relationship between environmental DNA metabarcoding read counts and rank abundance of fish species in lakes, finding a strong correlation and a negative effect of body mass on eDNA sequence abundance.
