@nanopore Plant dust biodiversity! Airborne dust traps can be really useful in biodiversity surveys, and Johnson et al. (2021) claims that metabarcoding can capture more diversity, with less sampling effort, than a traditional plant community survey: htt

@foxtrotfalcon @david_t_savage @LAevolving From the environment 😉 Abundant examples in the literature. Here a couple from air, but could also be soil, water, or plants (that target avian droppings) - https://t.co/OvzZVntVu8 - https://t.co/lcvD0aALdl

This paper discusses how airborne eDNA metabarcoding techniques can be used as an effective way to survey a traditional plant community— a cool tool of how plant communities can be monitored in the future! https://t.co/W3CelVJt5Q #MUevolution22

@SpicyG20 @alpineedna Great progress in airborne eDNA from our group on plants https://t.co/HRyemf5JZh As well as @Dr_bat_girl https://t.co/jAZazYi117 and @lynggaardc https://t.co/fy7GBRpGTm for animals!
