How many replicates to accurately estimate fish biodiversity using environmental DNA on coral reefs?

Abstract Quantifying fish species diversity in rich tropical marine environments remains challenging. Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is a promising tool to face this challenge through the filtering, amplification, and sequencing of DNA traces from water samples. However, because eDNA concent...
