Challenges for assessing vertebrate diversity in turbid Saharan water-bodies using environmental DNA

The Sahara desert is the largest warm desert in the world and a poorly explored area. Small water-bodies occur across the desert and are crucial habitats for vertebrate biodiversity. Environmental DNA (eDNA) is a powerful tool for species detection and is being increasingly used to conduct biodivers...
