  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. Development of a DNA barcode for species identification of tuna

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Clara Nordquist; Jonathan Edwall; Leonora Eriksson; Nelly Mäkinen; Minna Sayehban; Matilda Styfberg; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Thunnini; D-loop; mitochondrial control region; CR; 16S; ATP8; COII; Cox2; CytB; COI; Cox1; ND2; NADH dehydrogenase 2;

    Sammanfattning : Today, DNA-barcoding with the gene COI is regularly used in the identification of fish. However, this is not an adequate way of identifying species of tuna due to COI lacking sufficient interspecies divergence. This is problematic since fraud and mislabeling are a major concern within the fish and tuna industries. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Evaluation of the impact of mitochondrial variation in the estimation of breeding values for dairy cattle

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

    Författare :Gabriela Mafra Fortuna; [2021]
    Nyckelord :mitogenome; variance components; milk yield; simulation;

    Sammanfattning : Mitochondria are independent cellular components responsible for cellular respiration. Through oxidative phosphorylation they convert Adenosine diphosphate and inorganic phosphate into Adenosine Triphosphate, ATP, the essential molecule sourced by all intracellular metabolic processes.

  5. 4. Epigenetic Regulation of Mitochondrial DNA

    Kandidat-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Författare :Jennie Johansson; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Acetylation; Epigenetics; Heteroplasmy; Methylation; Mitochondrial haplotype; Mitochondrion; Non coding RNA; Phosphorylation;

    Sammanfattning : This mini-review investigates and compiles the latest knowledge regarding epigenetic changes on the mammalian mitochondrial DNA and its proteins. Methylation of the DNA, acetylation of the proteins and silencing of genes by short non-coding RNAs are the main epigenetic changes known today to affect mitochondrial DNA, mostly leading to repression.

  7. 5. Genetic diversity of North Ethiopian indigenous sheep populations using mitochondrial DNA

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

    Författare :Mulata H. Adhena; [2018]
    Nyckelord :sheep; mitochondria; Ethiopia;

    Sammanfattning : This study was aimed to investigate the haplotype variations and maternal origin of four sheep populations (Highland, Abergelle, Elle and Begait) of North Ethiopia. A 1088 bp of the mtDNA control region was amplified using specific primers and the polymerase chain reaction was performed. The PCR products were purified and sequenced. LÄS MER
