Both samplers are modeled after commercial devices such as the Rotorod\u00ae and the Burkard\u00ae samplers, but are more economical and require less maintenance than commercial devices. We compared our two new samplers to Rotorod\u00ae samplers using Xyleborus spp. boring dust known to contain ROD causing pathogens. The comparison was done in a large outdoor field cage to determine relative effectiveness of the three samplers for capturing windblown boring dust. The dataset contains results of quantitative PCR (qPCR) tests to determine presence of Ceratocystis lukuohia, Ceratocystis huliohia, and Metrosideros polymorpha DNA in the samplers after release of boring dust over the course of twelve trials where position of samplers was rotated.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P9QN1HBT", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.5c1c1c85e4b0708288c7ac14.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_5c1c1c85e4b0708288c7ac14", "keyword": ["Ceratocystis", "Environmental DNA", "Environmental Sampler", "Metrosideros polymorpha", "Ohia lehua", "ROD", "Rapid Ohia Death", "Spore Traps", "USGS:5c1c1c85e4b0708288c7ac14", "environment"], "modified": "2020-08-27T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-155.096827, 19.695607, -155.091505, 19.700617", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Ceratocystis DNA Detection in Frass During Caged Sampler Comparison"}
