Quantification of Environmental DNA (eDNA) shedding and decay rates for three commercially harvested fish species and comparison between eDNA detection and trawl catches
Abstract Stock assessments are critical to inform decisions for sustainable fisheries management. Environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis is a potential tool for assessing fish biomass and populations to aid in stock assessments. To facilitate modeling of biomass based on eDNA data, shedding and decay rat...
