Environmental DNA as an Indicator of Seasonal Reproductive Phenology in Freshwater Mussels

Nathaniel T. Marshall, Cheryl Dean, Mae Sierra, W. Cody Fleece

This study uses environmental DNA to monitor freshwater mussel reproduction, finding that male mitotype signals align with spawning periods but are sporadic and may be influenced by multiple factors.
