Abstract

We appreciate Natalie M. Hull and Karl G. Linden’s interest in our recent article in which we examined a novel application of a CyQuant®-based approach for examining DNA concentrations of UVand chlorination-treated organisms. Hull and Linden questioned our work, which was conducted to inform considerations of regulating ballast water discharges on the basis of the number of viable organisms, and several concerns were identified. Here we provide our response to the specific concerns raised about experimental design, procedure, and interpretation.

对赫尔和林登给编辑的信的回应(2020)

我们感谢Natalie M. Hull和Karl G. Linden对我们最近的一篇文章的兴趣，在这篇文章中，我们研究了一种基于CyQuant®的方法的新应用，用于检测紫外线和氯化处理过的生物体的DNA浓度。Hull和Linden对我们的工作提出了质疑，我们的工作是为了根据活生物体的数量来调节压载水的排放，并确定了几个问题。在此，我们对实验设计、程序和解释提出的具体问题作出回应。

期刊介绍： Management of Biological Invasions, established in 2010 by Dr. Elias Dana, is an open access, peer-reviewed international journal focusing on applied research in biological invasions in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems from around the world. This journal is devoted to bridging the gap between scientific research and the use of science in decision-making, regulation and management in the area of invasive species introduction and biodiversity conservation. Managing biological invasions is a crisis science, with Management of Biological Invasions aiming to provide insights to the issues, to document new forms of detection, measurements and analysis, and to document tangible solutions to this problem. In addition to original research on applied issues, Management of Biological Invasions publishes technical reports on new management technologies of invasive species and also the proceedings of relevant international meetings. As a platform to encourage informed discussion on matters of national and international importance, we publish viewpoint papers that highlight emerging issues, showcase initiatives, and present opinions of leading researchers.
