Best fieldwork day on lake #Lunz together with Theresa Reichenpfader sampling for the #Lenti-DNA project. The goal: a sampling strategy for #eDNA in #lakes for the long-term monitoring of #aquatic #eDNA at @elter-ri.eu sites. @umweltbundesamt.at, Biologische Station Illmitz, WasserCluster Lunz

🦉 New publication! 🦆 BirT: A Novel Primer Pair for Avian Environmental DNA Metabarcoding onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... Want to amplify birds from #eDNA samples? This new primer pair is the way to go! @dirch3.bsky.social, Rachel Empey, Megan Cowperthwaite, Katerina Coveny #metabarcoding

Excited to share our new paper about water quality in Kampala’s Lubigi wetland. Stormwater/sewage overloads wetland’s treatment capacity, causing persistent microbial contamination. Wetlands are vital buffers, but robust infrastructure and source control are essential. 🔗 doi.org/10.2166/wash...

🧬 New year, new job! 🧬 I have started a position as Group Leader at #WasserCluster #Lunz (Austria). Stay tuned for job openings at all levels in the TRIDENT group @trident-wcl.bsky.social and collaboration opportunities in upcoming national and international #eDNA Projects.

🎄eDNA preprint alert! 🎄Check out our admittedly massive review lead by the fearless @pedrobd.bsky.social. Maybe just the kind of Holiday reading you were looking for?! 😉 #MolecularEcology #rivers #oceans #lakes #environmentalDNA #eDNA

Wouldn’t it be kind of wild if someone actually pulled everything we know about what happens to eDNA between shedding and detection? Decay, transport, microbes, temperature, rivers, oceans, all of it?! We did that. 📄 Preprint link: www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-8... 🧬🔍🌊 #eDNA #MolecularEcology

Hello @bsky.app! This is the account of the #TRIDENT research group at #WasserClusterLunz. We'll share cool field work pictures, publications, and info on all things #eDNA #metabarcoding #CitizenScience. Pic below: @bettinathal.bsky.social with her first ever #BlueWhale eDNA sample in the #Azores.
