Environmental DNA as a Tool for Better Understanding the Distribution, Abundance, And Health of Atlantic Salmon and Pacific Salmon
The development and application of approaches to detect and quantify environmental DNA (eDNA) have potential to improve our understanding of the distribution, abundance, and health of Atlantic Salmon Salmo salar and Pacific salmon Oncorhynchus spp. Here, we review 61 articles focusing on eDNA applic...
