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.

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.

Pleased to see this published (and open access) - I’ve been contributing to this #ForestResearch / #HuttonInstitute led project for over 5 years (with most of the co-authors even longer):

We have had requests for instructions on how to make an airborne #eDNA sampler. Here is a video and designs are available on the lab page linked in the video description. This is our "beeSafe" #beeDNA collection model. #environmentalDNA

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/

Environmental DNA lets us detect species, but DNA moves & persists in the environment, so a DNA detection may not represent a local, living individual. Our #NewPaper (led by Léonie Suter) uses different DNA fragment lengths to distinguish recently-shed from older krill eDNA
