Airborne Environmental DNA Analysis as a Tool to Monitor Live Bird Trade

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
We explore airborne environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis as a novel tool to detect avian species and assess its potential for monitoring bird trade. We collected airborne samples in both enclosed and open market environments, accompanied by visual surveys, and processed them using DNA extraction and metabarcoding to identify avian taxa.

The complete mitochondrial genome of diamond dove (Geopelia cuneata) and its phylogeny

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of diamond dove (Geopelia cuneata) was first determined in this study. The mitogenome is 17,880 bp in size and composed of 22 transfer RNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and a ...

Changing Rainfall Drives Locally Asynchronous Reproduction of Tropical Birds via Modular Trophic Pathways

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.
In low‐latitude mountains, we found insectivorous bird communities switched from breeding before to after the dry season at a threshold in dry‐season insects. Localized breeding season reversal of insectivores across wet‐to‐dry gradients magnified short‐term effects of drought and contrasted with the seasonal stability of nectar‐fruit consumers.

Neither slim nor fat: estimating the mass of the dodo (Raphus cucullatus, Aves, Columbiformes) based on the largest sample of dodo bones to date [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2017
The dodo (Raphus cucullatus) might be the most enigmatic bird of all times. It is, therefore, highly remarkable that no consensus has yet been reached on its body mass; previous scientific estimates of its mass vary by more than 100%. Until now, the vast

Tails of Biodiversity: Vertebrate Community Assessment in a Neotropical River Basin via eDNA Metabarcoding

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
This study used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding to assess vertebrate biodiversity in headwater streams of the Rio Santo Antônio basin, southeastern Brazil, a tributary of the Rio Doce. A total of 119 vertebrate OTUs were identified, with oxidation–reduction potential emerging as the strongest environmental predictor of species richness.

A Ground Surface Rolling Method for Detecting Environmental DNA of Terrestrial Animals

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
The Koro‐rin sampler enables surface‐based eDNA detection of terrestrial animals. This approach captured a broad range of bird and mammal taxa, including small and cryptic species, and revealed seasonal patterns in animal presence, complementing conventional monitoring methods.
