Temperature May Play a More Important Role in Environmental DNA Decay than Ultraviolet Radiation
Environmental DNA (eDNA) preservation is crucial for biological monitoring using eDNA technology. The decay of eDNA over time in natural water bodies and the effects of temperature and ultraviolet (UV) radiation on the decay rate are largely unknown. In this study, the linear and exponential decay m...
