A Summary of Sea Turtle Genetic Studies in the Indian Ocean and Southeast

Our summary has compiled available information about genetics of nesting and in-water sea turtle populations in the Indian Ocean and Southeast Asia so that others interested in this field of research might easily identify areas requiring further investigation. We have also identified studies with contradictory results that would benefit from additional investigation. Study outcomes have been presented without distinguishing among samples from different tissues or fluids, which included blood, skin, muscle, liver, eggshell, and egg albumen, as it was not anticipated that this would be an influential factor on the results
