This grant is for the purpose of funding a collaborative research project led by the U.S. Geological Survey, Western Fisheries Research Center, Columbia River Research Laboratory. The primary objective is to develop an oligo-microarray specifically for largescale suckers and subsequently test its cross-reactivity across other sucker species. The selected recipient will work closely with the Columbia River Research Laboratory staff, contributing to the design, implementation, analysis, and reporting of study findings. Expected outcomes include jointly co-authored reports and peer-reviewed publications. Furthermore, the developed microarray will become an accessible resource for researchers and cooperators, facilitating future studies on factors influencing gene expression in diverse sucker populations. This initiative aims to advance genetic research tools for aquatic ecosystems.

| Description: | The U.S. Geological Survey, Western Fisheries Research Center, Columbia River Research Laboratory, is offering a funding opportunity to facilitate a project that will 1) lead to the development of an oligo-microarray for largescale suckers and 2) test the cross-reactivity of the microarray to other sucker species. The goal is to conduct this project collaboratively with the assistance of recipient who will work cooperatively to design, implement, analyze, and report the findings of the studies. Specifically, complete reports and/or peer reviewed publications that will be jointly co-authored by recipient and the Columbia River Research Laboratory staff. Furthermore, the resulting microarray will be available for the cooperators and others to use in conducting studies of factors influencing gene expression in a variety of sucker species. |
