Marine strategy: the pre-survey activity for the development of a "Metabarcoding eDNA" analysis protocol was completed in Trieste

This week, the pre-survey activity for the development of a "Metabarcoding eDNA" analysis protocol was included in the port of Trieste as part of a pilot monitoring activity for the Marine Strategy - Descriptor 2_Non-indigenous species, which sees the collaboration between ISPRA, the Polytechnic University of Marche and the regional agencies. The activity will make it possible to identify the taxonomic composition of animal and plant species in port areas, also identifying the presence of non-indigenous species and may constitute an important investigation tool for the early warning system.
