July 10, 2014 – Three student papers were accepted this week. Wei Na published genetic marker papers for two of the five dioecious tree species that comprise her study system on Barro Colorado Island (BCI), Panama. This is part of her research on the dynamics of seed- and pollen-mediated gene flow in tropical trees. John Schroeder, who was an undergraduate REU student in our lab (now in the Dirzo lab at Stanford), just published the results of his undergrad research on genetic structure in Pouteria reticulata (Sapotaceae) from the BCI plot. Great work John and Wei Na!
