  1. 1. Relatedness and diversity in Swedish local chicken breeds using mitochondrial DNA D-loop sequences and SNP data

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Författare :Esther Taiwo Afolabi; [2023]
    Nyckelord :chicken; genetic diversity; mtDNA d-loop; SNP; Swedish local chicken breeds;

    Sammanfattning : Genetic diversity is the variation in genetic information carried by individuals within a species or population. This variability plays a crucial role in enabling species to adapt and survive in changing environments and is essential for evolutionary processes. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Estimating the effective population size of Swedish native cattle : understanding the demographic trajectories of indigenous Swedish cattle breeds

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Författare :Dolapo Adepoju; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Swedish native cattle; effective population size; genetic drift; cattle demographic trajectories; native cattle conservation;

    Sammanfattning : The indigenous cattle populations are on the decline globally with the continuous improvement of genetic gains in commercial breeds. Due to their unique adaptive features to the local ecosystem, traditional cattle breeds are pools of valuable genetic resources that could help combat the impact of climate change in the near future.

    Nyckelord :Indigenous Swedish breeds; enJSRV; primitive; endogenous; polymorphism; proviruses;

    Sammanfattning : The present modern sheep is believed to have evolved from its wild ancestors 2.5 million years ago. Furthermore archeological evidence suggest that sheep has been domesticated by man since 8500-9000 years BC for their beneficial products to man including; milk, meat, skin and wool. LÄS MER
