Targeted nuclear loci in the Eurasian lynx

Hundreds of nuclear genes were investigated for sequence variation in the Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx). The aim of the project is to identify SNPs (single-nucleotide polymorphisms) in the nuclear genome of this species, for subsequent use as genetic markers for conservation genetics applications; that is, the identification of individuals, monitoring populations, etc.

研究人员针对欧亚猞猁（Lynx lynx）的数百个核基因的序列变异情况展开了调查。本项目的核心目标为在该物种的核基因组中鉴定单核苷酸多态性（single-nucleotide polymorphisms, SNPs），后续将这些位点作为遗传标记应用于保护遗传学研究，具体涵盖个体识别、种群监测等场景。
