Vertebrate environmental DNA from leaf swabs [PDF]

Current Biology, 2023
Terrestrial vertebrates are threatened by anthropogenic activities around the world. The rapid biodiversity loss that ensues is most intense in the tropics and affects ecosystem functions, such as seed dispersal, or may facilitate pathogen transmission1.

Comparative Analysis of Mitogenomes of Chironomus (Diptera: Chironomidae)

Insects, 2022
(1) Background: Chironomids are biological indicators, playing an important role in monitoring and assessing the changes in water ecosystems. Mitochondrial genomes have been widely applied as a molecular marker to analyze the taxonomy and phylogeny of ...

Biodiversity monitoring using environmental DNA

Molecular Ecology Resources, 2021
Monitoring biodiversity is essential to protect, preserve and restore ecosystems, particularly in the context of current challenges such as climate change, habitat destruction and globalization (Baird & Hajibabaei, 2012). Biomonitoring is needed for developing biotic indices for assessing ecological status, measuring impacts of anthropogenic activities

Climate-assisted persistence of tropical fish vagrants in temperate marine ecosystems

Communications Biology, 2021
Laura Gajdzik et al. used population genomics, dietary DNA metabarcoding, and climate models to understand the influence of the 2010/2011 marine heatwave on the migration of rabbitfish from tropical environments into temperate environments in Western ...

Ancient and modern environmental DNA [PDF]

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2015
DNA obtained from environmental samples such as sediments, ice or water (environmental DNA, eDNA), represents an important source of information on past and present biodiversity. It has revealed an ancient forest in Greenland, extended by several thousand years the survival dates for mainland woolly mammoth in Alaska, and pushed back the dates for ...

Development and evaluation of fish eDNA metabarcoding assays facilitate the detection of cryptic seahorse taxa (family: Syngnathidae)

Environmental DNA, 2020
Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding methods have demonstrated their potential as noninvasive techniques for the monitoring and conservation of marine fishes, including rare and endangered taxa.

Fecal sample collection methods and time of day impact microbiome composition and short chain fatty acid concentrations

Scientific Reports, 2021
Associations between the human gut microbiome and health outcomes continues to be of great interest, although fecal sample collection methods which impact microbiome studies are sometimes neglected. Here, we expand on previous work in sample optimization,
