Population genetic data underpin many studies of behavioral, ecological, and evolutionary
processes in wild populations and contribute to effective conservation management. However…

… , biosecurity researchers often face the difficult choice of either increasing the replication
of homogenized (eg, freeze-dried or bead-beaten) samples; extracting DNA from only 0.2 g, …

While in recent years environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding surveys have shown great
promise as an alternative monitoring method, the integration into existing marine monitoring …

Current molecular biology laboratories rely heavily on the purification and manipulation of
nucleic acids. Yet, commonly used centrifuge- and column-based protocols require …

Background The utility of environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding surveys to accurately
detect species depends on the degree of DNA dispersal. Multiple marine studies have …

DNA extraction from environmental samples (environmental DNA; eDNA) for metabarcoding‐based
biodiversity studies is gaining popularity as a noninvasive, time‐efficient, and cost‐…

BACKGROUND: Prognostic indices for recurrence‐free interval in patients with parotid
carcinoma were developed and validated in a nationwide database. International validation …

The measurement of biodiversity is an integral aspect of life science research. With the
establishment of second‐ and third‐generation sequencing technologies, an increasing amount …

… The following day samples were vortexed at maximum speed for 1 min, followed by a
centrifugation step for 1 min at 6000 × g. 600 μl of supernatant was transferred to a new 2 ml …

We used non-invasive real-time genomic approaches to monitor one of the last surviving
populations of the critically endangered kākāpō (Strigops habroptilus). We first established an …
