dc.description.abstract | Deep-sea ecosystems are reservoirs of biodiversity that are largely unexplored, but
their exploration and biodiscovery are becoming a reality thanks to biotechnological
advances (e.g., omics technologies) and their integration in an expanding network of
marine infrastructures for the exploration of the seas, such as cabled observatories.
While still in its infancy, the application of environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding
approaches is revolutionizing marine biodiversity monitoring capability. Indeed, the
analysis of eDNA in conjunction with the collection of multidisciplinary optoacoustic
and environmental data, can provide a more comprehensive monitoring of deep-sea
biodiversity. Here, we describe the potential for acquiring eDNA as a core component for
the expanding ecological monitoring capabilities through cabled observatories and their
docked Internet Operated Vehicles (IOVs), such as crawlers. Furthermore, we provide
a critical overview of four areas of development: (i) Integrating eDNA with optoacoustic
imaging; (ii) Development of eDNA repositories and cross-linking with other biodiversity
databases; (iii) Artificial Intelligence for eDNA analyses and integration with imaging data;
and (iv) Benefits of eDNA augmented observatories for the conservation and sustainable
management of deep-sea biodiversity. Finally, we discuss the technical limitations and
recommendations for future eDNA monitoring of the deep-sea. It is hoped that this
review will frame the future direction of an exciting journey of biodiscovery in remote
and yet vulnerable areas of our planet, with the overall aim to understand deep-sea
biodiversity and hence manage and protect vital marine resources. | en_US |
