A whopping 144 red deer genomes from across their range shows how markers with different modes of inheritance (e.g. the sex chromosomes) capture different signals from isolation in glacial refugia. The X chromosome is a useful marker in this context! academic.oup.com/mbe/article/...
Thrilled to present our project on developing a one health approach to tick and tick-borne diseases through manipulation of reservoir host communities with Katie August today at @ukvbd.bsky.social #UKVBD2024
Our review is finally here! We include all the terrestrial and semi-aquatic mammal-focused #eDNA and #iDNA studies available up to Jan 2025! It's amazing to see how far this field has come 🧬🦦
Citizen scientists are better at this #eDNA craic than we are 😆 But that's not the main point! A passion project of @hollybroadhurst.bsky.social, where she delves into their motivations and experiences of engaging in eDNA surveys theoryandpractice.citizenscienceassociation.org/articles/10....
Our latest output is a practical guide to anyone considering running a citizen science project involving environmental DNA monitoring. Written by @laurens-colours.bsky.social and @lynseyrharper.bsky.social -- tinyurl.com/2cn9zdbx #DNA #CitizenScience #monitoring @ukdnawg.bsky.social
Abstract. Sex chromosomes differ in their inheritance properties from autosomes and hence may encode complementary information about past demographic event
🧬Have you used DNA metabarcoding in your research or work?
We want to understand how this tool can help monitor neotropical biodiversity and gather insights into the experiences, challenges, and needs of those using it, including researchers and environmental managers.
