New paper out from my PhD work! Use of carrion fly iDNA #metabarcoding to monitor invasive and native mammals 🦊 🦘🧬🪰 Read the media release here: bit.ly/44hlH3P Article: doi.org/10.1111/cobi.1… TrEnD Lab

DNA on the fly! Check it out…… lots of endangered Australian natives and invasive species that are impacting biodiversity. Nice work Kristen Fernandes et al.

Using a passive eDNA sampling approach - filter membranes submerged in groundwater - we were able to detect subterranean fauna 🦐 Paper out now! Mieke van der Heyde TrEnD Lab protect-au.mimecast.com/s/VhBtC81VLxig…

Spider webs capture environmental DNA from terrestrial vertebrates sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Could plants identify and select fungi that can help them fight off pests and diseases?! Sounds incredible right? We recently theorised this possibility in The ISME Journal. We discuss this & possible implications in The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand theconversation.com/if-plants-can-…
