Grant Description

To document the hybridization dynamics and develop conservation management of hybrid salamanders at Fort Ord. This project will characterize the temporal movement of marker genes from the two salamanders across the Fort Ord landscape. By resampling the Fort Ord ponds in 2014 and compare results from 2004, the advance of both hybrid swarm and SI genes during the last decade can be mapped and insights gained into the likelihood and projected rate of additional non-native genomic spread in the future.
