Our work

We largely concentrate in field and lab work. Our field sites are described and summarized in the Study sites page. Most field work deals with setting up and monitoring our seed trap sampling scheme, taking samples, mapping, and carrying out animal observation in the field.

Lab work takes place at the Molecular Ecology Lab in Estación Biológica de Doñana, CSIC. There we concentrate in microsatellite analysis and quantification in relation to paternity and gene flow studies. The lab protocols, as well as detailed descriptions of the field methods are in the Resources page.
