This is one of the questions we want to answer in our EBAI sub-project in Bymarka near Trondheim. Sampling was done before and after rotenone treatment in 2016 and we now follow up with three sampling events in the 2017-season. The first was done early June and the second just finished in late July. We sampled the exact same stations as last year: three different substrates in each six lakes. Three of the lakes had been\u00a0treated with rotenone, the other three are untreated reference lakes.<\/p>\n

With our sampling scheme, we also want to compare eDNA communities with the communities recorded by traditional means (kick-sampling), and see if DNA from species found on one particular\u00a0substrate leaks to nearby sites in the lake where the species are\u00a0not recorded.<\/p>\n
