Environmental DNA characterization of amphibian communities in the Brazilian Atlantic forest: Potential application for conservation of a rich and threatened fauna
(2017-11-01)
The Brazilian Atlantic forest is a highly threatened biodiversity hotspot, harboring one of the highest levels of amphibian species richness in the world. Amphibian conservation in Neotropical biomes is critical because ...
Extraction of bulk DNA from Thar Desert soils for optimization of PCR-DGGE based microbial community analysis
(Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso, 2007)
Environmental DNA as a non-invasive alternative for surveying aquatic communities in tank bromeliads
(2021-01-01)
Tank bromeliads provide a freshwater microhabitat for a rich aquatic community, including amphibian species. Some of these amphibians are threatened, among other factors, because their host plants are also threatened. DNA ...
Power and limitations of environmental DNA metabarcoding for surveying leaf litter eukaryotic communities
(2021-05-01)
Leaf litter habitats shelter a great variety of organisms, which play an important role in ecosystem dynamics. However, monitoring species in leaf litter is challenging, especially in highly diverse environments such as ...
DGGE with genomic DNA: Suitable for detection of numerically important organisms but not for identification of the most abundant organisms
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2008)
Identification of all important community members as well as of the numerically dominant members of a community are key aspects of microbial community analysis of bioreactor samples. A systematic study was conducted with ...
Successful carnivore identification with faecal DNA across a fragmented Amazonian landscape
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2011-09-01)
The use of scat surveys to obtain DNA has been well documented in temperate areas, where DNA preservation may be more effective than in tropical forests. Samples obtained in the tropics are often exposed to high humidity, ...
