  Diversity and conservation of freshwater eels in Northern Philippines, Descrição: In the Philippines, the giant mottled eel (A. marmorata) has been a traditional fishery resource by indigenous people. However, it has been recently exported to countries that regard it as a high value species. The life history and catch composition of the freshwater eels in the Philippines can be defined as data deficient, and thus need of assessment. At present there is very little to no information about the distribution and life history of freshwater eels in the Philippines. Therefore, research is needed to provide an insight into the current conservation status of these species. This project aims to fill in the above-mentioned gaps. Field surveys and sampling will be conducted to monitor the current biogeographic pattern of these species as well as to identify the species composition and diversity. The area of interest is the Northern Philippines, due to Luzon island s proximity to a putative spawning ground (Mariana s trench) and due to reports of exploitation of larval eels in the area. The information generated will be used to draw immediate actions and for future long-term management plans. Also, the project is expected to raise awareness to the public about the species.. , Situação: Em andamento; Natureza: Pesquisa. , Alunos envolvidos: Graduação: (2) / Mestrado profissional: (1) / Doutorado: (1) . , Integrantes: Brian Wade Jamandre - Coordenador., Financiador(es): Muhamed Bin Zayed Species Conservation Fund - Auxílio financeiro.

  Estuarine and near-shore fishes as indicators of environmental changes, Descrição: The estuarine and near shore biodiversity is strongly influenced by accelerating changes, largely due to human activities, whether coming from local pressure or from climate change.This proposal aims to demonstrate the effective use of genetic markers as fundamental basis upon which the impact of climate change and anthropogenic effects on the genetic structure and life history of fish populations inhabiting estuaries and near shore areas will be evaluated. The main objective of the project is to estimate the actual level of genetic differentiation between the populations of common fish families (Mugilidae, Chanidae, Lutjanidae and Carangidae) from estuaries and near shore areas of Taiwan and Philippines. Fish is a great indicator species particularly due to its variety of life histories. Thus, this study proposes a multi-species approach, selecting several fish species representative of different life histories and occupying special niches in the estuarine and near shore areas. Analysis of the genetic structure of the different fish species will provide a set of answers to crucial questions of the climate change and human induced impacts on life history and on individual and population levels. The lack of knowledge as the actual effects of the aforementioned impacts will be resolved in the case study using the different species. Genetic variability and population genetic structure will be ascertained using molecular methods such as sequencing of mtDNA genes (COI, Cyt b and 16s rRNA) and genotyping of microsatellite loci as one of among the most reliable genetic markers. High-throughput sequencing is necessary to investigate questions related to the protection of biodiversity and genetic resources and to the functioning of ecosystems. Collaboration between specialists from Taiwan and Philippines will lead to an efficient combination of knowledge, expertise and equipments that are necessary to infer novel, significant and reliable results.
