  1. 1. Comparative genomics of Central Arctic Ocean microbiota for observation of Alternative Carbon Fixation Pathways

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Kaavya Venkateswaran; [2023]
    Nyckelord :comparative genomics; microbial ecology; bioinformatics; carbon fixation; pangenomics;

    Sammanfattning : The Central Arctic Ocean is a repository of rich and diverse biota, whose major portion is one of the most important drivers of global biogeochemical cycles, including carbon cycling. In this study, the functional potential of the microbiota to fix carbon with alternative carbon fixation pathways were investigated along with their chemolithotrophic characteristics. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Metagenomic insights into AMR distributions in freshwaters and soils

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Jay Håkansson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :AMR; metagenomics; freshwater; microbial ecology; soil; antimicrobial resistance;

    Sammanfattning : Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is rapidly becoming a public health issue, as more and more infectious bacteria become resistant to our known antibiotics. Suggested reasons for the proliferation of these strains are misuse and overuse of antimicrobials, especially on an industrial level, in agriculture, livestock and aquaculture. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Review of pH recommendations for soilless cultivation systems

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Crop Production Ecology

    Författare :Elric Fabricius; [2023]
    Nyckelord :soilless cultivation; hydroponics; aeroponics; NFT; nutrient film technique; DWC; deep water culture; pH; nutrient solution; speciation; availability; biomass production;

    Sammanfattning : Our human population is growing, and with that, so is our demand for food, food that today still is not a guarantee for all of us. To help increase global food security, the diversification of our food production through the implementation of soilless, hydroponic cultivation systems has been suggested. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Legacy effects of temperature alterations on microbial resistance and resilience to drying and rewetting

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Franklin Lee Harris; [2023]
    Nyckelord :microbial ecology; soil; carbon dynamics; high latitudes; climate change; moisture stress; isotopes; respiration; trait based ecology; soil microbes; Environmental Changes in High Latitudes EnCHIL ; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : With warming in soils due to climate change, a series of secondary factors arise, which have multifaceted effects on soil microbial communities. Of these, alterations to soil moisture are among the most crucial to understanding how microbial functions will change in the face of climate change. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The evolutionary origins of phagocytosis in microbial populations

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Författare :Alfred Leimar; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Theoretical ecology; phagocytosis; predation; adaptive dynamics;

    Sammanfattning : The emergence of the eukaryotic cell was one of the key events that paved the path to the vast variety of complex life visible all around us. A pivotal event in the process of eukaryogenesis was an endosymbiosis of two prokaryotic cells which in time resulted in the mitochondria. LÄS MER
