Project Details
Description
Gen@FarE has three major aims:
1. To acquire high-quality genomes of all eukaryotic species in the Faroe Islands and Faroese waters.
2. To establish population genetics for species of commercial or ecological interest.
3. To establish an information databank for all Faroese species, combined with a citizen science registration database,
