Early detection of aquatic invaders using metabarcoding reveals a high number of non-indigenous species in Canadian ports

The ability to detect non-indigenous species (NIS), particularly those present at low abundance, is limited by difficulties in performing exhaustive sampling and in identifying species. Here we sample zooplankton from 16 maj...
