- Description
- The purpose of this project is to apply current molecular genetics tools and other quantitative and geographic information tools on tiger salamander populations on Fort Huachuca to identify taxonomy or lineage at subspecies levels. The objectives of this project are to: 1) Provide field sampling, collections, and other information. Conduct laboratory processes and analyze results to differentiate the native Endangered subspecies, the non-native invasive subspecies, or hybridization from both subspecies. 2) Test for pathogens on salamanders. 3) Record locations of present populations for analyzing sources of salamander populations, movement directions and distance, and disease spread, if feasible. 4) Analyze genetics results, and provide a report on genetic patterns, interpretations of the patterns, and to develop a decision support system for managing salamander locations or populations with partners in state and federal wildlife and land management agencies by removal, translocation or protection.
