NSF Minority Postdoctoral Research Fellowship for FY 1998

这一行动为NSF 1998年少数民族博士后研究奖学金提供了资金。该研究金支持人口生物学领域的研究和培训。这项研究和培训计划的标题是洋流和幼虫传播期对印度尼西亚口足类种群遗传结构和进化的影响。分子遗传学技术正被用来比较印度尼西亚口足类动物的基因流和遗传结构模式，这些口足类动物的幼虫时期相似/不同，跨越单向和环流的地区。将在系统发育的背景下进行比较，以确定扩散时期、洋流和进化祖先对口足类种群遗传结构和进化的影响

This action funds an NSF Minority Postdoctoral Research Fellowship for 1998. This fellowship supports research and training in the area of population biology. The research and training plan is entitled the effects of currents and larval dispersal period on the genetic structure and evolution of Indonesian stomatopod populations. Molecular genetic techniques are being used to compare patterns of gene flow and genetic structuring in Indonesian stomatopods with similar/different larval periods, across regions with unidirectional and circular currents. Comparisons will be made in a phylogenetic context to determine the effects of dispersal period, currents, and evolutionary ancestry on the genetic structuring and evolution of stomatopod populations
