A Curtin University study has revealed that a new method of capturing DNA could provide farmers with a valuable tool for boosting crop production—while also benefiting the environment. Researchers ...
Monitoring the birds and the bees: eDNA metabarcoding of flowers detects plant–animal interactions
Curtin researchers have uncovered new evidence of western pygmy possums interacting with native flowers, providing the first eDNA study to simultaneously detect mammal, insect and bird DNA on flowers.
A new article uses environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding to analyze fish and zooplankton communities. The study found that the movement of water between freshwater bodies, or freshwater connectivity, ...
All organisms shed traces of their biological material, which contains their unique DNA, into the environment. Researchers using a technique called metabarcoding to sequence this environmental DNA ...
The DNA in a single cup of water can track wildlife, monitor pollution and survey pathogens in waterways and their ...
This project will develop cost-effective and efficient means of assessing baselines and monitoring changes in deep-sea biodiversity by filling critical gaps in DNA barcode and specimen image databases ...
Just a few meters beneath the clear, blue waters of Okinawa, reef-building corals known as Scleractinia have quietly lived for centuries. Slowly, layer by layer, they have constructed intricate, rigid ...
Environmental DNA Expeditions is a global, citizen science initiative that will help measure marine biodiversity, and the impacts climate change might have on the distribution patterns of marine life, ...
