科研领域描述
分子生态学 & 生物多样性
我们将分子生物学方法与野外调查采样相结合,通过实验室分析和生物信息学分析,解析多种生态学问题,研究方向主要包括:
1. 利用环境DNA(eDNA)研究生物多样性分布模式和环境影响因素
生物不断释放DNA到其生存环境中,因此通过检测环境样品(包括水、土壤、空气等)中的DNA(即环境DNA)可以获得生物物种分布、种群规模、种间关系等重要信息。这种方法无损伤性、灵敏度高、准确高效,是目前生物多样性研究的前沿领域。我们利用eDNA方法,开展包括城市鱼类多样性、青藏高原及云南地区水体多类群生物多样性、南水北调水系生物输送、沿海生物分布及人类影响等研究课题,为了解生物多样性格局、理解群落构建机制、评估人类活动的生态影响等提供科学数据。同时,我们致力于新型eDNA采样方法的研发,为采集各类环境中的生物信息提供技术支撑。
2. 分子食性和食物网关系研究
食物网关系是生态系统关系的核心组成部分,了解动物的食性是理解种间关系和生态系统过程的重要前提。我们利用动物粪便DNA结合宏条形码高通量测序,分析我国青藏高原、西南山地等多个生态系统中多种食肉动物的精细食性结构,构建复杂定量食物网关系。该些研究对于认识在不同食肉动物的生态系统功能、共存机制及野生与家养动物之间的关系有重要意义,并为保护和管理生态系统提供指导。
3. 野生动物的种群遗传学研究
了解野生动物的遗传多样性和种群结构对认识其进化过程及种群动态具有重要意义,种群之间基因流的模式对于了解物种的繁殖结构和种群参数也至关重要。我们利用分子遗传学技术结合野外种群调查,分析包括白头叶猴、海陆蛙、东方铃蟾等多个物种的种群遗传结构,评估不同种群的基因交流水平,并反演其种群数量历史动态。这些信息为评估各种生态及人为因素对物种遗传结构的影响提供依据,据此可制定更合理有效的策略以保护物种的遗传多样性。
