Whole genome sequence of Kandelia candel

The whole genome sequence of Kandelia candel is done from the Kannur District of Kerala which is considerd as the dominant population. Molecular Markers identified from this sequence could help inIdentifying genetic variation helps predict the ability of mangroves to adapt to changing environmental conditions, such as salinity changes and temperature shifts.Genetic structuring may indicate local adaptation to specific ecological niches, such as varying salinity or tidal conditions. This information is crucial for site-specific conservation.By comparing genetic diversity across populations, researchers can identify which populations have higher or lower genetic variability, which correlates with resilience to environmental stresses and climate change.
