This grant is for the purpose of studying genetic interactions within reclamation areas, focusing on grasses. The research will investigate the genetic differences between commercially sourced plants used in reclamation and locally occurring plants of the same species. Understanding these genetic dynamics is crucial for the long-term success and ecological integrity of restoration projects. The findings will provide insights into optimal plant material selection, contributing to improved biodiversity and enhanced ecosystem resilience. This study aims to develop more effective and sustainable land management practices for future environmental restoration.
