Environmental
AbstractMolecular tools are an indispensable part of ecology and biodiversity sciences and implemented across all biomes. About a decade ago, the use and implementation of environmental DNA (eDNA) to detect biodiversity signals extracted from environmental samples opened new avenues of research. Initial eDNA research focused on understanding population

Environmental DNA for functional diversity
2018Abstract Chapter 10 “Environmental DNA for functional diversity” discusses the potential of environmental DNA to assess functional diversity. It first focuses on DNA metabarcoding and discusses the extent to which this approach can be used and/or optimized to retrieve meaningful information on the functions of the target community.

Profiling Environmental Conditions from DNA
2020DNA is quintessential to carry out basic functions by organisms as it encodes information necessary for metabolomics and proteomics, among others. In particular, it is common nowadays to use DNA for profiling living organisms based on their phenotypic traits.

Monitoring endangered freshwater biodiversity using environmental DNA
Molecular Ecology, 2011Abstract Freshwater ecosystems are among the most endangered habitats on Earth, with thousands of animal species known to be threatened or already extinct. Reliable monitoring of threatened organisms is crucial for data‐driven conservation actions but remains a challenge owing to nonstandardized methods that depend on practical and ...

Environmental DNA tracks rare species
Science, 2018Oceans Marine animals are often elusive, making it difficult to establish their presence in a region or to estimate population sizes. Many of these animals are also rare, making them even more difficult to study.

Introduction to environmental DNA (eDNA)
2018Abstract Chapter “Introduction to environmental DNA (eDNA)” defines the central concepts of this book. Environmental DNA (eDNA) corresponds to a mixture of genomic DNA from many different organisms found in an environmental sample such as water, soil, or feces. DNA metabarcoding can be defined as the simultaneous DNA-based identification

Environmental Stress and Lesion-Bypass DNA Polymerases
Annual Review of Microbiology, 2006In nature, microbes live under a variety of harsh conditions, such as excess DNA damage, starvation, pH shift, or high temperatures. Microbial cells respond to such stressful conditions mostly by switching global patterns of gene expression to relieve the environmental stress.

Environmental DNA and RNA Metabarcoding
Environmental DNA (eDNA) and RNA (eRNA) technologies, when integrated with metabarcoding, have emerged as significant instruments in cancer research particularly in exposomics and environmental carcinogenesis. These approaches facilitate the identification and monitoring of genetic material from many environmental sources, yielding insights into the ...Odangowei Inetiminebi Ogidi +2 more
