  1. 21. Developing a reproducible bioinformatics workflow for canine inherited retinal disease

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Melina Toni Marie Martin; [2023]
    Nyckelord :CanFam4; Nextflow; Inherited Retinal Degeneration; dog; whole-genome sequencing; bioinformatics;

    Sammanfattning : Inherited Retinal Degenerations (IRDs) are a heterogenous group of diseases which lead to vision impairment and can be found both in humans and in dogs. About 1 in 1,380 humans is estimated to suffer from an autosomal recessive IRD, which would be 5.5 million people worldwide, and many more are estimated to be unaffected carriers. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Evolutionary conservation analysis of sequence variants underlying ecological adaptation in Atlantic herring

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Leyi Su; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Ecological adaptation; Evolutionary conservation; Atlantic herring;

    Sammanfattning : The Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus) is a model organism for exploring the genetic basis of ecological adaptation on account of its large effective population size which greatly restrains the disturbance of genetic drift. In this project, I conducted an evolutionary conservation analysis of the Atlantic herring genome using conservation scores generated by phastCon, phyloP and GERP++ in order to study the sequence variants related to salinity or spawning-time adaptation in Atlantic herring.

  4. 23. Effect of a plant-derived nutraceutical on the tolerance of axenically-cultured Artemia towards abiotic or biotic stressor

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

    Författare :Ahumuza Allan Castro; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Artemia; Hsp70; Vibrio campbellii; plant extract; aquaculture; abiotic stressor;

    Sammanfattning : Aquaculture is one of the fastest-growing food-production industries worldwide accounting for almost half of fish used for human consumption. Super-intensive, intensive, and semi-intensive farming practices used to produce large farm fish are increasing the frequency of disease outbreaks which is a major problem affecting sustainable aquaculture growth.

  5. 24. From Scroll to Cart: Investigating the Influence of TikTok Community Commerce Content on Adult Purchase Behavior

    Master-uppsats,

    Författare :Adia Atwell; [2023]
    Nyckelord :TikTok; Community Commerce; Influence; Purchase Behavior; User-Generated Content; Word of Mouth; Stimulus Organism Response; Social Influence;

    Sammanfattning : With the rise of social media platforms and the increasing popularity of short-form video content, TikTok has emerged as one of the dominant platforms for entertainment, information sharing, and commerce. This thesis aims to examine the influence of community commerce TikTok content on adult users, exploring the impact it has on their purchasing behaviors, perceptions, and overall engagement. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Single-cell RNA-seq mapping of chicken leukocytes : An investigation into single-cell transcriptomics as an alternative to traditional immunological methods within non-traditional model organisms

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Mikrobiologi och immunologi

    Författare :Matilda Maxwell; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Bioinformatics; scRNA-seq; avian; immunology; Seurat; leukocytes; chicken; gallus gallus; 10x genomics; PCA;

    Sammanfattning : The immune system is a complex infrastructure where many cells interact with each other and perform duties depending on their type and function. When using traditional immunological methods in studying non-traditional model organisms, such as birds, challenges arise. LÄS MER
