Spring sampling completed (April 2023)

 Despite challenging weather conditions, BIOLAWEB scientific team has successfully completed the April sampling on lakes across Serbia. During this period, diatoms, phytoplankton, and macrophytes samples were taken from each lake. These samples will be analysed in partner institutions (metabarcoding), which will allow the identification of present organisms based on their DNA. 


This project is important because it will enable researchers to better understand the biological diversity of lakes in Serbia. Sampling of diatoms, phytoplankton, and macrophytes is crucial for monitoring the state of ecosystems and predicting their future evolution. Metabarcoding analysis will contribute to a more precise and efficient identification of present organisms, allowing for more detailed analyses of the ecosystems in these lakes.
