摘要

Lounging on Craig Venter's yacht in the South Pacific a couple of years ago, Neil Davies contemplated the tiny island of Moorea. Venter, famous for his work on the human genome, was sailing around the world to catalogue the microscopic life of the oceans. But Davies was pondering a more audacious goal: a plan to sequence an entire island. He mentioned the plan to a scientist on Venter's crew: "He just laughed," Davies remembers. But Davies was on to something. He and a band of ecologists are launching the Moorea Biocode Project, which aims to turn the island into something like a model organism for tropical ecology. Christopher Meyer, a sea-snail expert at the University of Florida, Gainesville, is the plans coordinator. Meyer says it will build on the ideas and tech-nologies behind the scientific movement known as DNA bar-coding, which classifies species according to a specific stretch of their genetic sequence. But Meyer says the Moorea project will go further.
