Junior research group (minnows)
In biodiversity research, little is known about the extent to which hybridisation of a native and non-native species can lead to a new invasive species. A research group led by Dr Madlen Stange is now addressing this research gap with a project at the Zoological Research Museum Alexander Koenig - Leibniz Institute for Animal Biodiversity. The group is investigating the distribution of the ecologically valuable schooling minnow in the Sieg, a tributary of the Rhine that is around 155 kilometres long.
