The BLM CA CESU UCLA is offering this grant to advance the conservation management of hybrid California Tiger Salamanders at Fort Ord. This grant is for documenting the intricate hybridization dynamics of these amphibians. The project specifically aims to characterize the temporal movement of marker genes across the Fort Ord landscape. By resampling Fort Ord ponds in 2014 and meticulously comparing the findings with 2004 results, researchers can map the progression of both hybrid swarm and SI genes over the past decade. This comprehensive analysis will provide crucial insights into the likelihood and projected rate of additional non-native genomic spread, directly informing effective conservation strategies for these vital salamander populations.

| 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. |
