Description
Conduct a broad sampling for dung samples for both species, and to develop novel methods to improve DNA preservation from dung, better identify distinct maternal lineages, and identify sire lineages grantee will initiate a project to store and grow cells, to allow for extraction of high quality DNA and to enable in vitro and genomic studies on a longer term basis the project expects for each species 1 widespread sampling of dung from wild rhinos 2 development of improved dung collection methods 3 high throughput sequencing HTS to be used on DNA from dung samples 4 maternal lineages identified more accurately and precisely by extracting full mitogenomes from HTS the HTS reads will also identify diet and pathogens and 5 novel y chromosome haplotype markers developed and used to identify paternal lineages the next generation sequences from dung samples will permit rhinoceros diet and intestinal parasites to be examined the results of this study will contribute to a growing body of genomic references of southeast asian flora, which will be shared with ecological researchers and provide vital information to habitat restoration efforts locally
