Comparative analysis of wild and long term captive bred Partula snails using morphometrics and population data (2021)
Thesis
Trickett, E. Comparative analysis of wild and long term captive bred Partula snails using morphometrics and population data. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Partula snails are one genus of the Partulidae family of air breathing, land snails that are endemic to the Pacific Islands. Over 100 partulid species are recognised with over half these species known to have existed and endemic to the Society Islan...

Fungal microbiomes are determined by host phylogeny and exhibit widespread associations with the bacterial microbiome (2021)
Journal Article
Harrison, X., McDevitt, A., Dunn, J., Grifftihs, S., Benvenuto, C., Birtles, R., …Antwis, R. (2021). Fungal microbiomes are determined by host phylogeny and exhibit widespread associations with the bacterial microbiome. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 288(1957), 20210552. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2021.0552

Interactions between hosts and their resident microbial communities are a fundamental component of fitness for both agents. Though recent research has highlighted the importance of interactions between animals and their bacterial communities, compara...

eDNA in a bottleneck : obstacles to fish metabarcoding studies in megadiverse freshwater systems (2021)
Journal Article
Jackman, J., Benvenuto, C., Coscia, I., Carvalho, C., Ready, J., Boubli, J., …Sales, N. (2021). eDNA in a bottleneck : obstacles to fish metabarcoding studies in megadiverse freshwater systems. Environmental DNA, 3(4), 837-849. https://doi.org/10.1002/edn3.191

The current capacity of environmental DNA (eDNA) to provide accurate insights into the biodiversity of megadiverse regions (e.g., the Neotropics) requires further evaluation to ensure its reliability for long‐term monitoring. In this study, we first... Read More about eDNA in a bottleneck : obstacles to fish metabarcoding studies in megadiverse freshwater systems.
