The Fish and Wildlife Department is offering a grant for the development of SNP markers for parentage assessment, and population genetics of razorback suckers. This grant aims to utilize next-generation sequencing to identify DNA markers for gender determination and individual-specific genetic markers for examining reproductive success. The project focuses on developing SNP markers for population studies of razorback sucker, allowing for genetic analyses from small tissue samples like fin clips. Closing date for submissions is September 6, 2016.

| Description: | Notice of Intent to Award Only – Next generation sequencing approaches allow researchers to survey the entire genome for variable markers that can be useful for a diversity of purposes including gender determination and development of individual specific genetic markers that can be used for a variety of purposes such as examination of reproductive success. This project will use next generation sequencing to identify DNA-based markers that will allow for gender determination, of razorback suckers, from small amounts of tissue (e.g., a fin clip) and use next generation sequencing to develop DNA-based markers for population studies of razorback sucker. |
