Metabarcoding is a promising tool for identifying species of fish from their eggs and larvae
Metabarcoding is a promising tool for identifying species of fish from their eggs and larvae

Understanding the diversity and distribution of fish egg and larvae in the ocean provides invaluable information on ecosystem health, capacity to recover from disturbances and helps guide management and conservation efforts. This study shows that metabarcoding is a promising tool that allows for rapid and accurate species identification. OBIS was used to validate and confirm the distribution range, habitat and occurrence of the species detected by metabarcoding.
