摘要

Scientists with Florida Atlantic University's Harbor Branch Institute's Population Biology and Behavioral Ecology program believe genetic testing may be the key to solving many mysteries surrounding dolphins in the Indian River Lagoon (IRL) and beyond. Their research, involving the genetic testing of more than 600 dolphins sampled both within the lagoon and along the adjacent Atlantic coastline, sheds new light on the population structure and dispersal patterns of the dolphins that inhabit the IRL. The study examined two different types of genetic markers, or parts of the genome, in dolphins— one from the mother and the other from both parents. Scientists found distinct genetic differences between dolphins in the IRL and those in the Atlantic Ocean.
