9600300 Normark The International Research Fellow Awards Program enables U.S. scientists and engineers to conduct three to twentyfour months of research abroad. The program's awards provide opportunities for joint research, and the use of unique or complementary facilities, expertise and experimental conditions abroad. This award will support a twelve-month postdoctoral research visit by Dr. Benjamin Normark to work with Dr. Roger L. Blackman at the Natural History Museum in London, England. Dr. Normark and Dr. Blackman will conduct a program of research into the molecular and genomic evolution of obligately parthenogenetica aphids, focusing on the tribe Tramini. This work will build on Dr. Normark's ongoing research into the molecular evolution of the aphid tribe Tramini and on Dr. Blackman's ongoing cytogenetic research into Tramini and other aphids. A central goal will be to synthesize molecular-biological and cytogenetic techniques to progress towards an integrated view of the evolution of aphid genomes in the absence of sexuality. They will focus on the Trama troglodytes complex and on the tribe Tramini of which it is part. ***

小行星9600300 国际研究员奖励计划使美国科学家和工程师能够在国外进行三到二十四个月的研究。该计划的奖项提供了联合研究的机会，以及使用国外独特或互补的设施，专业知识和实验条件。 该奖项将支持本杰明·诺马克博士为期12个月的博士后研究访问，与罗杰·L。 布莱克曼在英国伦敦自然历史博物馆。 Normark博士和Blackman博士将进行一项研究计划，研究专性孤雌生殖蚜虫的分子和基因组进化，重点是Tramini部落。 这项工作将建立在Normark博士正在进行的对蚜虫部落Tramini分子进化的研究和Blackman博士正在进行的对Tramini和其他蚜虫的细胞遗传学研究的基础上。 一个中心目标将是综合分子生物学和细胞遗传学技术，逐步走向一个综合的观点在没有性的蚜虫基因组的进化。 他们将重点关注Trama troglodytes复合体及其所属的Tramini部落。 ***
