The rapid adoption of environmental DNA (eDNA) methods has drastically changed biodiversity monitoring efforts. It is often claimed that eDNA methods are more sensitive and efficient than conventiona...

This study experimentally investigated how warmer water temperatures impact eDNA removal rates in flowing waters. Using recirculating mesocosms with varying water temperatures (20°C, 23°C, and 26°C) ...

We use eastern indigo snakes to study eDNA deposition and persistence in terrestrial substrates to inform the application of terrestrial eDNA sampling at broader landscape scales. We used a species-s....

Environmental DNA (eDNA) and RNA (eRNA) metabarcoding has become a popular tool for assessing biodiversity from environmental samples, but inconsistent documentation of methods, data and metadata make...

IAGLR offers many awards and scholarships to recognize and support excellence.

The Southeast Conservation Genetics Lab (SECGL) at Auburn University is seeking a highly qualified individual to serve in the role as a technician in a new environmental DNA (eDNA) lab. This is a full...

Functional diversity and phylogenetic diversity are expected to be positively correlated. Here the authors show that the covariation between these metrics in vascular plant communities around the worl...

Desert Museum Volunteers Build Barcode Reference Library of Native Bees By Kim Franklin Eight years ago I launched a small study of the native bee diversity in Las Mipiltas de Cottonwood, a small u…

As mining operations destroy millennia-old glaciers, director Begaly Nargozu’s film reflects a disappearing landscape and culture.

Our culture has moved away from a fascination with the greenery around us. Experts warn that “plant blindness” could come with a cost.

I first met Dean after my wife and I had split up—dude, why is everyone freaking out, it was just a small earthquake. We get it. Move on. Look at e...
