Robust passive sampling of airborne environmental DNA to monitor plants and animals
Abstract Airborne environmental DNA (eDNA) is a rich resource for understanding biodiversity, but its wider application is hindered by its complex collection methods and unknown sampling time effects. To develop a passive sampling scheme that is effective and convenient, we systematically compared the performance of an array of materials, namely common

Abstract The genus Symbiochlorum, initially described from a single strain isolated from a coral in the South China Sea, was shown to be a sister lineage of Ignatius within the green algal order Ignatiales. Its significant phylogenetic divergence from Ignatius raises the possibility of its classification as a new family.
