Degradation and turnover of extracellular DNA in marine sediments: ecological and methodological considerations.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Degradation rates of extracellular DNA determined in marine sediments were much higher than those in the water column. However, due to the high sediment DNA content, turnover times were much shorter in seawater. Results reported here provide new insights into the role of extracellular DNA in P cycling in marine ecosystems.

Precise study of geophysical and ecological characteristics of benthic habitats is very important, because the seabed type of these habitats has close relationship with presence or absence of particular benthic species as well as with their distribution in the benthic communities. The aim of this study was Investigation of Relationship between Ecogeomorphology and Granulometry of Bed Sediments ...
متن کاملHistory, applications, methodological issues and perspectives for the use of environmental DNA (eDNA) in marine and freshwater environments.
Genetic material (short DNA fragments) left behind by species in nonliving components of the environment (e.g. soil, sediment, or water) is defined as environmental DNA (eDNA). This DNA has been previously described as particulate DNA and has been used to detect and describe microbial communities in marine sediments since the mid-1980's and phytoplankton communities in the water column since th...
