Current Project

Population Genetic Structure and Connectivity of Fish Communities in Singapore

This project aims to determine the genetic connectivity and parentage linkages of selected fish species. Both larval and adult fish specimens (i.e., from taxa with limited home ranges to broadly distributed taxa) would be sampled. This project also aims to synthesise source-sink relationships between sites and habitats and construct connectivity matrices based on parentage links and genetic connectivity data.
