Abstract:

Genetic population analysis using molecular markers is probably the most important issue in conservation genetics and today it is a very useful tool for the study of species subjected to sustainable use. Caiman latirostris (broad-snouted caiman) is one of the two crocodilian species cited for Argentina. Their wild populations were drastically reduced in the 1950s and 1960s due to commercial hunting and intense alteration of their habitat, and C. latirostris was included in the Appendix I of CITES. Since 1990, management plans that use ranching system (harvest of wild eggs, captive rearing and reintroduction to nature) began in Argentina. Through these management activities, Argentine caiman populations were numerically increased and transferred to the Appendix II of CITES that allows the regulated trade of their products. Genetic population studies are being developed together with these sustainable use plans because genetic monitoring is considered essential in management program execution. This chapter includes genetic population studies about broad-snouted caiman in Santa Fe province, Argentina. Analysis related to variability, differentiation and genetic structure were carried out through isozyme electrophoresis, RAPD markers, and quantitative traits. Furthermore, paternity studies were conducted using microsatellite markers. The obtained results indicate that the broad-snouted caiman populations analyzed have low to intermediate genetic variability values, a significant population differentiation, and a high phenotypic variability for some of the morphometric traits studied. In addition, we found indications that C. latirostris mating system could include multiple paternity behavior, since we found more than one paternal progenitor in at least one of the families analyzed. Although the utility and broad applicability of molecular studies are widely accepted, this approach should be complemented by population analyses conducted by means of traditional methods such as morphometry, cytogenetics, ecology, and ethology to get a deeper biological knowledge of the species. To increase the efficiency in the use of natural resources the development of suitable legal guidelines as well as their effective implementation becomes very important to protect wildlife. © 2010 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
