Airborne DNA reveals synchronized responses of tropical forest assemblages to precipitation

The paper uses airborne DNA to show that tropical forest assemblages respond synchronously to precipitation, with shifts in composition independent of richness.

Targeted hybridization capture enables comprehensive detection of freshwater bioassessment invertebrates from environmental DNA

This study uses targeted hybridization capture to detect freshwater macroinvertebrates from eDNA, recovering 450 genera across 8 phyla with high taxonomic resolution.

Integrated reanalysis of global riverine fish eDNA datasets shows robustness and congruence of biodiversity conclusions

This study reanalyzes global riverine fish eDNA datasets to show that biodiversity conclusions are robust despite varying bioinformatic workflows and reference databases.

Surveying Tropical Faunal Diversity via Airborne DNA Analyses

This study evaluates airborne eDNA metabarcoding for assessing tropical arthropod and vertebrate diversity, finding it comparable to traditional methods and highlighting the importance of standardized sampling effort.

Globally unified analysis of riverine eDNA reveals common associations of fish biodiversity with drainage characteristics

This study uses global eDNA data to show how riverine fish biodiversity relates to drainage characteristics, revealing climate and human activity effects vary by biodiversity facet and catchment size.
