Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS NOIP17AC01030
The Bison Partnership: Genetic Conservation Initiative at Wind Cave National Park (WCNP) aims to create a long-term genetic conservation strategy for the unique bison population at WCNP. This initiative involves collaboration between the U.S. Department of the Interior's National Park Service and Texas A&M University's Agrilife Research.
The plan includes sampling bison from WCNP and its satellite herds to analyze their genetic makeup using mitochondrial and nuclear DNA markers. Key objectives comprise:
1. Conducting genetic sampling of bison from TNC-WCNP satellite herds during the 2017 roundups to assess mitochondrial DNA status and genetic diversity. 2. Analyzing the genetic structure of these herds, focusing on heterozygosity, inbreeding measures, and the presence of unique alleles. 3. Strategically sampling young bison at WCNP to compare current genetic data with past data, ensuring that the population's genetic health remains stable. 4. Investigating the genetic integrity of the WCNP bison to assess any potential cattle introgression, utilizing SNP-based BisonChip HD Array analysis.
The Texas A&M group will carry out the genetic studies while the National Park Service will facilitate sample collection and help establish management guidelines for maintaining genetic diversity across the bison population.Apply for NPS NOIP17AC01030
