Journal ArticleDOI

“Sight‐unseen” detection of rare aquatic species using environmental DNA

TL;DR: Quantitative comparisons with traditional fisheries surveillance tools illustrate the greater sensitivity of eDNA and reveal that the risk of invasion to the Laurentian Great Lakes is imminent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of random effects to the study of resource selection by animals

TL;DR: A simulation approach was used to clarify the application of random effects under three common situations for telemetry studies and found that random intercepts accounted for unbalanced sample designs, and models withrandom intercepts and coefficients improved model fit given the variation in selection among individuals and functional responses in selection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Environmental conditions influence eDNA persistence in aquatic systems

TL;DR: Measurements of local environmental conditions, consideration of environmental influence on eDNA detection, and quantification of local eDNA degradation rates will help interpret future eDNA surveillance results.
Journal ArticleDOI

Particle size distribution and optimal capture of aqueous macrobial eDNA

TL;DR: The results suggest that aqueous macrobial eDNA predominantly exists inside mitochondria or cells, and that settling may therefore play an important role in its fate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantification of mesocosm fish and amphibian species diversity via environmental DNA metabarcoding.

TL;DR: The results illustrate the potential for eDNA sampling and metabarcode approaches to improve quantification of aquatic species diversity in natural environments and point the way towards using eDNA metabarcoding as an index of macrofaunal species abundance.
