A turtle time capsule: DNA found in ancient shell
Molecular Genetics and Genomics
Molecular geneticists at STRI study butterfly speciation and wing coloration, the divergence of a crocodile species found from Florida to Colombia, and gene expression in cacao plants as they are exposed to different types of beneficial and harmful fungi. The list of terrestrial and marine research projects at the genetic level is long and benefits from the availability of state of the art laboratory equipment adjacent to tropical forests and reefs.
