Description

This project is part of the Global Genome Biodiversity Network-Global Genome Initiative Awards program 2021. We are documenting angiosperms (approximately 12 families) and lichens (also about 12 families) from central Mexico, considering the states of Aguascalientes, Jalisco, and Zacatecas. Those states have diverse habitats, such as arid areas, subtropical shrublands, and temperate forests. The stored material includes both dry tissue and extracted DNA, deposited at the DNA Bank of the Universidad Autónoma de Aguascalientes. Each sample is linked to a herbarium specimen held at the Herbarium of the Universidad Autónoma de Aguascalientes (HUAA), ensuring its integrity and accessibility for future research. This effort not only enhances our understanding of the biodiversity at a regional level, but strengthens ADNUAA's capacity to contribute to the goals of the GGBN, promoting global scientific collaboration and the preservation of Mexico's genomic diversity

Geographic Coverages

Central Mexico, encompassing poorly known areas of the states of Aguascalientes, Jalisco, and Zacatecas, particularly the natural protected areas known as the “Sierra Fría” and the “Sierra del Laurel”. Those areas include arid regions (xerophytic shrublands), temperate zones (dry and humid oak forests, coniferous forests, and mixed forests), and tropical regions (mainly subtropical shrublands).
