Recovering Historical eDNA From Museum-Preserved Filter Feeders via Non-Destructive Metabarcoding. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT Recent technical advances have significantly enhanced the value of museum specimens for molecular research, with metagenomic and metabarcoding approaches expanding further the utility of museum collections. However, given the finite number of specimens, there is a critical need to move past destructive DNA extraction approaches and to explore ...

The role of cell replacement in benthic–pelagic coupling by suspension feeders [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2016
Benthic–pelagic coupling through suspension feeders and their detrital pathways is integral to carbon transport in oceans. In food-poor ecosystems however, a novel mechanism of carbon recycling has been proposed that involves direct uptake of dissolved ...
