The paper presents a CRISPR-based biosurveillance platform for detecting invasive rats, achieving species-specific discrimination and high sensitivity.

This study evaluates non-destructive eDNA extraction from ethanol preservatives in Antarctic filter-feeding museum specimens, finding that ethanol filtration performs as well as tissue biopsies for metabarcoding fish eDNA.

The paper develops CORSAIR, a CRISPR-based environmental biosurveillance system using AI-designed guide-RNAs for rapid, field-deployable eDNA detection of invasive species.

tombRaider improves species and haplotype identification in metabarcoding by removing artefacts and pseudogenes, enhancing data accuracy and reliability.

The paper recovers historical environmental DNA (heDNA) from Antarctic sponge specimens to reconstruct past fish biodiversity and community composition.

The paper compares eDNA sources from water, bivalves, sponges, and ethanol to assess their utility for biodiversity monitoring, finding sponges are reliable while bivalves are not.

This study uses non-invasive genomic methods to monitor kakapo populations, enabling individual identification through environmental DNA sequencing and providing insights into genomic diversity and inbreeding.

This study shows that environmental DNA can effectively detect common haplotypes in blackfoot pua but rarely captures rare ones, supporting its use for non-invasive population genetic monitoring.

The paper introduces an open-source platform for high-throughput nucleic acid extraction and manipulation using magnetic beads, highlighting their cost-effectiveness and versatility.
