Profile

Field of work

During my PhD project I focus on the freshwater fauna – fishes and macroinvertebrates – of the River Sieg (Germany) to evaluate potential advantages in taxa detection, taxonomic resolution and sample processing time when DNA barcoding approaches supplement stream monitoring routines.

Research interests

DNA barcoding, biodiversity monitoring, freshwater fauna, aquatic ecology, systematics and taxonomy, morphology

Evaluating the efficiency of different DNA-barcoding approaches for routine stream monitoring tasks [22]

The focus of this project is to evaluate exemplary for the freshwater fauna of the river Sieg (Germany) the efficiency of different single specimen DNA-barcoding approaches for routine stream monitoring tasks.The taxonomic resolution of morphological and DNA barcode-based species identification is directly compared, investigating additional value and congruence of both methods. In cases where standard COI barcodes failed to offer unambiguous species identifications, the discrimination capacity of the nuclear rhodopsin marker (RHO) is tested.
