Phylogeography, Conservation Genetics and Stocking Management of Perches and Basses

该项目将使用DNA数据来解决有关流行和广泛分布的鱼类的生物多样性起源和维持的基本问题。从保护的角度来看，该项目将为鱼类资源的管理提供一个基准。我们将调查与重要的保护问题（包括国家濒危物种的恢复计划）以及沿海和内陆水域休闲渔业放养活动的管理有关的问题。后者与农村社区特别相关，因为它们为农村人民提供社会和经济利益。

This project will use DNA data to address fundamental questions about the origin and maintenance of biodiversity in a popular and widely distributed fish group. From a conservation perspective, the project will produce a benchmark about management of fish resources. We will investigate questions related to important conservation issues (including the recovery plan of a nationally threatened species) and the management of stocking activities in recreational fisheries of coastal and inland waters. The latter is particularly relevant to rural communities since they provide both social and economic benefits to rural people.
