Genetic Analysis of Grey Squirrels

Descriptions

RSTW requires the following outputs:1.Identification of molecular markers appropriate to carry out genetic analyses at the individual and population level2.Collection of genetic data from an appropriate subset of available samples3.Identification and use of analysis methods that are designed to investigate genetic changes in invading populations that are not necessarily in Hardy Weinberg equilibrium4.A geographic and temporal comparison of genetic variation among grey squirrel populations, and where possible, the genetic origin of the re-invading animals culled on Anglesey5.A summary report with recommendations as to how this genetic data can be used to inform future plans from RSTW and eradication of grey squirrels in GwyneddNOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the Sell2Wales Web Site at https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=90173.The buyer has indicated that it will accept electronic responses to this notice via the Postbox facility.
