Have the cake and eat it: optimizing nondestructive DNA metabarcoding of macroinvertebrate samples for freshwater biomonitoring

DNA metabarcoding can contribute to improving cost‐effectiveness and accuracy of biological assessments of aquatic ecosystems, but significant optimization and standardization efforts are still required to mainstream its application into biomonitoring programmes. In assessments based on freshwater m...
