#eDNA methods need standardisation.

A new commentary clarifies:
🔹 Formal standards vs best practice guidelines
🔹 Method choice & management needs
🔹 Where standards already inform action

A shared roadmap can help meet today’s challenges.

Building a robust eDNA ecosystem is a community effort.

Researchers, infrastructure providers, companies, data managers, and policy actors all play a role in shaping how eDNA data is shared and reused.

eDNA data shouldn’t live in silos.

Interoperability across tools, repositories, & infrastructures is essential for a connected eDNA digital ecosystem — and it’s a core focus of eDNAqua-Plan.

What do “standards” mean for eDNA?

From best practices to formal frameworks, clarity is essential for reuse, trust, and uptake across regions and applications.

eDNA science is advancing fast — but scaling it requires more than methods.

Standards, interoperability, and sustainability are key pieces of the puzzle.
That’s where eDNAqua-Plan is focusing its efforts.
