Experimental observations on the decay of environmental DNA from bighead and silver carps (2017, background): “…decay similar to those observed in other eDNA studies (Barnes et al. 2014; Dejean et al. 2011; Maruyama et al. 2014; Pilliod et al. 2014; Strickler et al. 2015; Thomsen et al. 2012a; Thomsen et al. 2012b), though the eDNA derived from milt appeared to degrade much more rapidly than the…”
The ecology of environmental DNA and implications for conservation genetics (2016, background): “Recent studies by Barnes et al. (2014), Pilliod et al. (2014), and Strickler et al. (2015) all suggest that environmental conditions play an integral role in the fate of eDNA once it has been shed from an organism.”
Using eDNA to develop a national citizen science-based monitoring programme for the great crested newt (Triturus cristatus) (2015, background): “Elsewhere in this special issue, Strickler et al. (2014) report on the effects of temperature, UV-B radiation and pH on the degradation of American bullfrog tadpole eDNA in the laboratory.”
Characterizing the distribution of an endangered salmonid using environmental DNA analysis (2015, background): “Water temperature has been shown to affect both the likelihood of Chinook presence, in terms of habitat suitability (Brett, 1952; Coutant, 1977) as well as the degradation rate of DNA (Zhu, 2006; Strickler et al., 2015).”
