Testing newly developed PCR primers for high-specificity enrichment of bees from terrestrial eDNA [PDF]
BMC Research NotesObjective Plant-derived environmental DNA (eDNA) considerably improved our ability to study terrestrial arthropod communities. However, bee pollinators are still underrepresented in eDNA analyses.

Early recognition by Ball and Hooker in 1878 of plant back-colonization (boomerang) events from Macaronesia to Africa [PDF]
, 2020 Recent work in island biogeography has shown that back-colonization (‘boomerang’ events) from islands to continents have occurred more frequently than previously understoodWe report possibly the earliest inference of this pattern, by John Ball and Joseph
