Once I need a identification number from a country to get internet, so I look for an example at internet and it works! I felt like identity theft (LOL).

Environmental DNA: What's behind the term? Clarifying the terminology and recommendations for its future use in biomonitoring The last decade brought a spectacular development of so-called environmental (e)DNA studies. In general, “environmental DNA” is defined as DNA isolated from environmental samples, in contrast to geno...

#eDNA should be used in its generic sense, as originally defined, encompassing the DNA of all organisms present in environmental samples, including microbial, meiofaunal and macrobial taxa.

🧪⚒️ You probably know that arthropods, such as insects and crustaceans, need to molt (shed) their exoskeleton in order to grow. But you might not have known that female lobsters mate right after molting. Why? Because they carry and brood their eggs on the undersides of their tails, and if they molt,

Hi, I'm Leandro. I'm a Molecular Ecologist. I study environment DNA to detect and quantify no native species in aquatic systems. I'm also into DNA barcoding and species delimitation by DNA sequences.

Two caecilians in the shape of a double helix.

I'm not procrastinating.... making #Pride caecilian DNA stickers is a requirement of my dissertation. Schistometopum thomense and S. ephele, the iconic duo of my PhD work.

OK @gbif.org I'm confused. How come metabarcoding says a moth from Northern Europe and Canada is in Madagascar? #dnabarcoding This is a pretty striking distribution pattern.

Mutualism breakdown underpins evolutionary rescue in an obligate cross-feeding bacterial consortium - Nature Communications Rapid genetic adaptation to environmental change, or evolutionary rescue, can be constrained by a less adaptable mutualistic partner. Here, the authors explore evolutionary rescue in an obligate mutua...

1/ In our new paper, we explored whether obligate mutualisms can survive abrupt stress via evolutionary rescue.

We found that evolutionary rescue is possible—but it comes at the cost of mutualism. @jfriedman.bsky.social

NOAA carries a two century legacy of America’s first government science agency NOAA, the US government science and management agency in charge of sustainable fisheries, the national weather service, and ocean exploration, is in the crosshairs of the Trump administration and P…

The US government’s first scientific agency focused on ocean science, and its discoveries were vital in our emergence as an economic superpower.

The Trump administration is trying to destroy NOAA, its successor.

Genuine question: is there any precedent for a Presidential executive order -- or just its implications -- being adopted so fast and so widely across the government?
