Wiredu-Boakye et al. analysed 432 DNA damage response (DDR) proteins in 68 genomes, showing that DDR proteins are consistently longer than housekeeping proteins, regardless of life history.

New on Entomology Today: A pair of beetle species are key players in managing the hemlock woolly adelgid, but it can be difficult to detect where they are present and feeding on the invasive pest. A new study details a genetic test to detect and differentiate traces of the beetles' DNA in samples of soil, water, or plant matter from a target area. #entomology #insects #EnvironmentalDNA #biocontrol https://entomologytoday.org/2024/06/18/environmental-dna-biological-control-hemlock-woolly-adelgid-laricobius-beetles/

A request to the #eDNA #environmentalDNA community. We are working on a project related to eDNA and ethics and looking for feedback from the user community. Please help us and complete this survey. https://forms.office.com/r/P6R57BAbZq Please pass it along to other users.

If you are a #conservation biologist, #ecology practitioner #molecularecology etc. or have been thinking of using the tool, we would like to hear from you.
