Outline Networking Research Projects and Barcoding Outlook Presentation outline

Eastern African Barcoding Initiative Steering-Committee (EABI-SC) 31 January to 2nd February, 2007 in Mombasa

Three research areas prioritized 1.Fresh water fishes 2.Agricultural Pests (Stem borers) 3.Pollinators

Coordination of E. A Cyprinids Barcoding  Regional coordinator –Dr. William Ojwang – Kenya  National coordinators –Dr. Dismas Mbabazi - Uganda –Dr. William Ojwang - Kenya –Dr. Antoine Nsabimana - Rwanda –Dr. Dejen Eshete- Ethiopia –Dr. Abdillahi Chande- Tanzania –[Monica Mwale, SAIAB attended]

Tsetse flies Ecololgy of tsetse flies; developing tools for monitoring and control, including semiochemicals for attraction/Repellency 1.Bloodmeal analysis 2.Taxonomy & Barcoding

MSc project: Morphometrics and Barcoding

Other projects Stingless bees of Kenya (MSc project, 3 regions) Sandflies of Kenya (to generate preliminary data for future project) ?

Projects in BOLD

Specimen sampling sites

funding 1.Piggy-back on other projects 2.GBIF DIGIT programme “digitization of the occurrence and distribution of tsetse fly and sandfly species in Kenya” 3.Prospects to benefit from a biodiversity study of the Lake Victoria region (if funding comes through)

future outlook Complete and publish small projects Contribute to large projects (continental or global) Write project Build capacity Build collaborations Actively participate in iBOL
