What are the implications for responses to environmental change? Stoneflies may be especially vulnerable to rapid environmental change because of limited dispersal. We use molecular markers to infer population structure, patterns of gene flow, population-habitat associations of aquatic organisms. We develop and apply tools to monitor the fate of adaptive, neutral, and ecologically relevant traits in natural populations.
We sampling different habitats and environmental conditions to model genes changes among populations.
