Advancing Genetic Methods in the Study of Parrot Biology and Conservation
Diversity, 2021 Parrots (Psittaciformes) are a well-studied, diverse group of birds distributed mainly in tropical and subtropical regions. Today, one-third of their species face extinction, mainly due to anthropogenic threats. Emerging tools in genetics have made major

The ecology of environmental DNA and implications for conservation genetics
Conservation Genetics, 2016 Environmental DNA (eDNA) refers to the genetic material that can be extracted from bulk environmental samples such as soil, water, and even air. The rapidly expanding study of eDNA has generated unprecedented ability to detect species and conduct genetic
