🚨 New Publication Alert!
We show how sediment archives can be used to validate evolutionary ecosystem models—and thereby improve predictions of future marine ecosystem change.

Excited to share our new paper in #EcologicalIndicators! We developed a two-species #ddPCR reaction for a #diatom & a #dinoflagellate, using #sedaDNA to assess ecosystems & extend monitoring in the #BalticSea. 🌊 #Phytoplankton #PhytoArk

My first manuscript got published in #environmentalDNA.  We present new #metabarcoding #primers for #dinoflagellates and #cyanobacteria. We compared them with published primers and tested them on #sedaDNA samples. #phytoark #phytoplankton

Fossilized poo never stops surprising.

By analysing droppings from extinct hyenas, palaeontologists have reconstructed DNA from an ice-age woolly rhino https://t.co/LXqTMg4Aee

Our #phytoark is represented at the #INQUARoma2023 and is enjoying this lovely weather! @LOEWE_TBG @geobiodiversity

Great talk by Sarah Bolius at the #INQUARoma2023 presenting her work on the PhytoArk Project.

And thanks for advertising @JulianeRomahn's and my talks tomorrow.

Reads reflect biomass, but with taxon-specific differences. Genome sizes should be considered and DNA extraction needs to be optimized in shotgun metagenomics of soil invertebrates https://t.co/d18NkrjfhG @LOEWE_TBG @alex_schmidt13
