A Curtin University study has revealed that a new method of capturing DNA could provide farmers with a valuable tool for boosting crop production—while also benefiting the environment. Researchers ...

Curtin researchers have uncovered new evidence of western pygmy possums interacting with native flowers, providing the first eDNA study to simultaneously detect mammal, insect and bird DNA on flowers.

The DNA in a single cup of water can track wildlife, monitor pollution and survey pathogens in waterways and their ...

Recent studies have demonstrated that aquatic animals including fishes shed their genetic material into the environment as metabolic waste, damaged tissue, or sloughed skin cells. Such genetic ...

All organisms shed traces of their biological material, which contains their unique DNA, into the environment. Researchers using a technique called metabarcoding to sequence this environmental DNA ...

This project will develop cost-effective and efficient means of assessing baselines and monitoring changes in deep-sea biodiversity by filling critical gaps in DNA barcode and specimen image databases ...
