HIGHLIGHTS
- who: Michael C. Allen from the Ecology, Evolution and Natural Resources, Rutgers University have published the Article: Sampling environmental DNA from trees and soil to detect cryptic arboreal mammals, in the Journal: Scientific Reports Scientific Reports
- what: The authors show for the first time that an eDNA metabarcoding approach can be used to broadly characterize tree-dwelling mammal communities by sampling tree trunks and surrounding soil. The authors demonstrate that supplementing metabarcoding detection with qPCR-based methods can greatly improve sensitivity, a potentially important consideration for monitoring schemes focused on rare taxa (e_g, Refs.11 . . .
