Fig 1.
Time-dependent changes in eDNA concentration for ayu sweetfish and common carp.
Circles, crosses, and triangles represent DNA concentrations for each species at 10°C, 20°C, and 30°C, respectively. Solid, dashed, and dotted lines represent nonlinear regression for 10°C, 20°C, and 30°C treatments, respectively.

Full models and half-decay times for time-dependent degradation of eDNA as a result of nonlinear model fitting in Experiment 1.
Fig 2.
Relationship between bacterial abundance and DNA concentration of common carp in water after 12 and 24 h of incubation.
Data for 12- and 24-h incubation trials are represented as circles and triangles, respectively. White, gray, and black plots represent water temperature settings of 10°C, 20°C, and 30°C, respectively.
