Environmental DNA studies have always fascinated me with how smartly they use pre-existing "sampling efforts" in nature.
This is another great example of that!

Analysis of seawater for DNA of rare and endangered hammerhead sharks has been used to infer their presence or absence at multiple locations throughout their range. No sharks were captured or observed; accuracy of the inferred distributions depends on the presumed degradation of environmental DNA in hours or days.

Summary: https://scitechdaily.com/scientists-find-endangered-hammerhead-sharks-without-seeing-a-single-one/

Wiredu-Boakye et al. analysed 432 DNA damage response (DDR) proteins in 68 genomes, showing that DDR proteins are consistently longer than housekeeping proteins, regardless of life history.

New on Entomology Today: A pair of beetle species are key players in managing the hemlock woolly adelgid, but it can be difficult to detect where they are present and feeding on the invasive pest. A new study details a genetic test to detect and differentiate traces of the beetles' DNA in samples of soil, water, or plant matter from a target area. #entomology #insects #EnvironmentalDNA #biocontrol https://entomologytoday.org/2024/06/18/environmental-dna-biological-control-hemlock-woolly-adelgid-laricobius-beetles/
