La Guyane est un laboratoire naturel idéal pour étudier la biodiversité tropicale. Depuis 14 ans, le Labex CEBA, basé en Guyane française et porté par le CNRS, cherche à comprendre l’origine et le mai...

In the rainforest, much of life dwells in the tree canopy. But getting up there to study it isn’t easy. By the time a human has clumsily lumbered up from the ground, most of the critters have scattere...

Tropical rainforests still represent a treasure trove of undiscovered species. While many species of plants, animals, and insects have been identified over the years, some parts of these tropical ecos...

DNA metabarcoding has revolutionized our ability to monitor ecosystems. However, the method is still rarely used in developing countries where resources are limited and fieldwork is challenging. ...

Environmental DNA (eDNA) has emerged as a transformative tool for biodiversity monitoring and species detection, yet inconsistent metadata practices hinder data interoperability and reuse. To address...

Species detection using eDNA is revolutionizing global capacity to monitor biodiversity. However, the lack of regional, vouchered, genomic sequence information—especially sequence information that in...

Temperate forest plants favour heterogeneous semi-open woodlands associated with high herbivore densities, rather than uniform closed-canopy forests. Herbivore loss is therefore a probable driver of e...

Abstract The metabolic theory of ecology (MTE) aims to link biophysical constraints on individual metabolic rates to the emergence of patterns at the population and ecosystem scales. Because MTE links...

To monitor the effect of nature restoration projects in North Sea ecosystems, accurate and intensive biodiversity assessments are vital. DNA-based techniques and especially environmental (e)DNA metab....

The difference between the number of men and women listed as authors on scientific papers and inventors on patents is at least partly attributable to unacknowledged contributions by women scientists.

The data provided here consists of barcoding 86 species of fishes covering the partial DNA sequence of the 12S mitochondrial ribosomal gene. We generated 156 12S sequences and “Teleo” barcodes from f...

Dans un article récemment publié dans le journal de la British Ecological Society, l’équipe Pl@ntNet, s’appuyant notamment sur le travail de thèse de Tanguy Lefort, propose une avancée significative d...

Chemla et al. review the release of bacteria into the environment and propose engineering strategies to help improve performance and reduce risk.

<em>Journal of Ecology</em> publishes original research on all aspects of the plant ecology (including algae), in both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems.

Understanding how ecological assemblages vary in space and time is essential for advancing our knowledge of biodiversity dynamics and ecosystem functioning. Metabarcoding of environmental DNA (eDN...

Soils from 30 grasslands across Europe were subjected to 4 contrasting extreme climatic events under drought, flood, freezing and heat conditions, with the results suggesting that soil microbiomes fro...

This event will be co-hosted by the eDNA Collaborative and the Ocean Decade Collaborative Center for the Northeast Pacific, and is being planned in partnership with representatives from the Hakai Inst...
