What is it about?
Using dart technology to check on genomic diversity of different acacia sample from different regions of Kenya, to check their differences and/or similarities using genetic data.

Why is it important?
To learn about our changing environments and how they are affecting the Acacia ecosystem and diversity allowing conservation efforts to judge the diversity deterioration within the tree species. Shedding light on the broader picture.
Perspectives
It's a learning experience on how important genetic data can reveal so much in terms of ecological impacts within various populations and give a clear insight on which regions are most affected and why.
