ROW: Development of Molecular Genetics Techniques for Marine Microalgae

这项妇女研究机会奖将用于发展分子技术，以研究海洋微藻菌株和物种的进化关系。类似的方法已经开发出来，并成功地用于高等植物，但它们还不容易适应于海洋藻类。成功的适应将极大地促进对这些生物的进化研究，这些生物对海洋生产力和食物链至关重要。

This Research Opportunities for Women award will be used for the development of molecular techniques to study the evolutionary relationships of strains and species of marine microalgae. Similar methodologies have been developed and successfully used for the higher plants but they have not been readily adapted to the marine algae. Successful adaptations will greatly facilitate evolutionary investigations on these organims which are of utmost importance inmarine productivity and food chains.
