Under the karst: detecting hidden subterranean assemblages using eDNA metabarcoding in the caves of Christmas Island, Australia

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Subterranean ecosystems are understudied and challenging to conventionally survey given the inaccessibility of underground voids and networks. In this study, we conducted a eukaryotic environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding survey across the karst ...

Digging for DNA at depth: rapid universal metabarcoding surveys (RUMS) as a tool to detect coral reef biodiversity across a depth gradient [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2019
Background Effective biodiversity monitoring is fundamental in tracking changes in ecosystems as it relates to commercial, recreational, and conservation interests. Current approaches to survey coral reef ecosystems center on the use of indicator species

The applicability of eDNA metabarcoding approaches for sessile benthic surveying in the Kimberley region, north‐western Australia

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, 2022
The application of environmental DNA technologies is a promising new approach to rapidly audit biodiversity across large‐scale, remote regions. Here, we examine the efficacy of a dual‐assay eDNA metabarcoding approach for sessile benthic bioassessments ...

Getting to the Root of Organic Inputs in Groundwaters: Stygofaunal Plant Consumption in a Calcrete Aquifer

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Groundwater environments interact with and support subterranean biota as well as superficial aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. However, knowledge of subterranean energy flows remains incomplete.

On a roll: a direct comparison of extraction methods for the recovery of eDNA from roller swabbing of surfaces

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2023
Objective Roller swabbing of surfaces is an effective way to obtain environmental DNA, but the current DNA extraction method for these samples is equipment heavy, time consuming, and increases potential contamination through multiple handling.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the invasive cyanobacteriosponge Terpios hoshinota (Demospongiae, Suberitida, Suberitidae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2023
The cyanobacteriosponge Terpios hoshinota occurs on tropical reefs throughout the Indo-Pacific. The species encrusts live coral, and other benthos, and is considered a pest species that can threaten the health and productivity of locally native benthic ...

Rock pools as a source of environmental DNA for the detection of the threatened Pilbara olive python (Liasis olivaceus barroni)

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
Environmental DNA (eDNA) research is transforming biomonitoring at a global scale, but applicability to reptiles has been restricted because of their presumed low shedding rate. Consequently, eDNA may have considerable limitations as a biomonitoring tool
