Environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis is a rapid, non-invasive, cost-efficient biodiversity
monitoring tool with enormous potential to inform aquatic conservation and management. …

The sampling of environmental DNA (eDNA) coupled with cost-efficient and ever-advancing
sequencing technology is propelling changes in biodiversity monitoring within aquatic …

Background Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is a promising tool for rapid, non‐invasive
biodiversity monitoring. Aims In this study, eDNA metabarcoding is applied to explore …

In the UK, the native European otter (Lutra lutra) and invasive American mink (Neovison
vison) have experienced parallel declines and expansions. Currently, the otter is recovering …

The European eel Anguilla anguilla (eel hereafter) is critically endangered and has a
catadromous life cycle, which means adult eels that live in pumped catchments must pass through …

Immune defense is temperature dependent in cold‐blooded vertebrates ( CBV s) and thus
directly impacted by global warming. We examined whether immunity and within‐host …

Seasonal patterns in immunity are frequently observed in vertebrates but are poorly
understood. Here, we focused on a natural piscine model, the three-spined stickleback (…

Early detection is paramount for attempts to remove invasive non-native species (INNS).
Traditional methods rely on physical sampling and morphological identification, which can be …

Understanding demographic processes over multiple spatial scales is vital for the optimization
of conservation/management strategies, particularly for commercially harvested taxa such …

Environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis is a relatively rapid, non-invasive, costefficient method
of species detection and identification, which may complement or interchange with …
