Research Technician Linnea
Herbertson linneah@email.arizona.edu Linnea
is working on new protocols that use high-throughput barcoding and
next-generation genomic sequencing to track rates of inbreeding in
introduced populations of Canary Island St. Johnswort. |

Biotechnology Certificate Intern Andrew
Cummings Office:
BSW 119 Andrew
is mastering the latest technology in next generation sequencing: the
Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine. We have our very own PGM in
the lab, and Andrew is working to leverage this and other next-gen
technologies to study the evolution of inbreeding depression in
invaders. |

Undergraduate Researcher Seth W
Smith Seth is fascinated by the ability of traits to evolve in response to new environments. He is studying how phenotypic variation in native source populations translates to phenotypic variation in genetically admixed populations, like those of invaders.

Undergraduate Researcher Janelle
Cocio Janelle
has been gardening since she was little, including hand pollinating her
own plants. Now she's crossing yellow starthistle populations to
better understand how genetic admixture affects the spread of invaders.

Undergraduate Researcher Wendy Wong Wendy
is eager to learn how genetic tools can help us answer big questions,
and she's a wiz in the lab! She is extracting and sequencing DNA
to
better understand the sources of genetic variation in invaders. |
