Environmental nucleic acids: a field-based comparison for monitoring freshwater habitats using eDNA and eRNA

J. E. Littlefair, M. D. Rennie, M. E. Cristescu

This study compares eDNA and eRNA for monitoring freshwater habitats, finding eRNA detects more species reliably despite similar community composition description.

A synthesis of senescence predictions for indeterminate growth, and support from multiple tests in wild lake trout

C. F. Purchase, A. C. Rooke, M. J. Gaudry, J. R. Treberg, E. A. Mittell, M. B. Morrissey, M. D. Rennie

The paper tests senescence predictions in wild lake trout, finding negligible senescence when maximum size is only slightly larger than maturation size, and potential negative senescence in populations with larger maximum sizes.
