DNA Analysis as a Promising Tool for Research of Aquatic Organisms in Modern Russia
摘要
Abstract
A brief review of the current status and prospects of aquatic research using various DNA analysis techniques (aDNA—ancient DNA, eDNA—environmental DNA, hDNA—historical DNA) in the post-Soviet space, with the emphasis on modern Russia, is presented. It is shown that, despite the rapid development of the use of DNA analysis to investigate fundamental and applied problems in various aquatic studies worldwide, research in this area in Russia is at an initial stage. Similar situations exist in countries that were part of the former USSR, as well as in other developing countries. The information presented on the Russian Federation may be relevant to other countries where aquatic research using DNA analysis is at an early stage.
