Closed ecological systems have been proposed for use in space travel and colonization, as they would allow astronauts to independently produce food, water, and oxygen and recycle their waste. Genetic markers can be valuable tools for studying and managing closed ecosystems in space, such as small populations or isolated environments. In this article, we explore the specific challenges that ecological systems will face in space, how genetic markers can be used to manage them, and also examine the potential for cultivating stone fruit crops in space.
