Integration of DNA-based approaches in aquatic ecological assessment using benthic macroinvertebrates

Benthic macroinvertebrates are among the most used biological quality elements for assessing the condition of all types of aquatic ecosystems worldwide (i.e., fresh water, transitional, and marine). Current morphology-based assessments have several limitations that may be circumvented by using DNA-b...
