Network dynamics revealed from eDNA highlight seasonal variation in urban mammal communities

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our novel study applied eDNA to track seasonal shifts in urban mammal communities, revealing changes in diversity and species interaction networks across 21 urban parks in Detroit. We highlight the influence of park size and human activity on biodiversity, demonstrating the utility of eDNA for urban conservation and wildlife management.

A Short‐Read Amplicon Sequencing Protocol and Bioinformatic Pipeline for Ecological Surveillance of Dipteran Disease Vectors

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 6, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Vector control remains an important strategy worldwide to prevent human infection with pathogens transmitted by arthropods. Vector control strategies rely on accurate identification of vector taxa along with vector‐specific biological indicators such as feeding ecology, infection prevalence and insecticide resistance.
