Hello MARMAMers,
In the following months I will be working on the chapter: "Conservation genetics in South American aquatic mammals: gene diversity, population structure and forensics" as part of the book: Conservation Biology Trends.
For this, I intend to do a review of the most relevant genetic studies about South American aquatic mammals related to forensics, management and evolutionarily significant units, population structure, molecular phylogeography, effective population size and genetic bottlenecks. As well as the conceptual and informational gaps in related areas that need further development, using genetic tools to develop them.
I was hoping that through MARMAM I could start creating a contact list and updating a bibliographical reference database of all South American aquatic mammal conservation genetic researchers to gather the and include past and current research,
researchers and peer review literature for when the time comes.
So, (again, if you are working on conservation genetics on South American aquatic mammals) please send:
-Name
-Current research institution and position
-Email
-Paper(s) or abstract(s) of your work
to: lari_minuano@yahoo.com.br
Thanks and sorry for any cross postings!
Best,
Larissa Rosa de Oliveira
