  1. 1. Spray Induced Gene Silencing in Phytophthora infestans : investigating exogenous dsRNA application for the control of potato late blight

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Plant Breeding (from 130101)

    Författare :Poorva Sundararajan; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Phytophthora infestans; RNAi; potato late blight; gene silencing; SIGS;

    Sammanfattning : Phytophthora infestans is an oomycete pathogen and the causal agent of late blight disease in potato and tomato. Even today, it causes massive loss to crop and economy worldwide. Current disease control strategies include breeding for resistance and extensive fungicide spray. LÄS MER

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Författare :Amanda Björksell; [2023]
    Nyckelord :climate negotiations; Paris agreement; Buen Vivir; ; Vivir Bien; article 6.8; climate justice; Bolivia; non-market approaches;

    Sammanfattning : A rising global temperature and increased emissions, in combination with the slow progress of the yearly climate negotiations shows that there is something hindering the radical improvement needed to protect both the planet and humanity. The outset for this thesis is to study the UN climate negotiations and the alternative discourse that can question the hegemony. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Combining doxorubicin and gemcitabine with targeted drugs as a treatment option for high-risk neuroblastoma

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Författare :Alexandra Johannesson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :neuroblastoma; doxorubicin; gemcitabine; targeted drugs; ATM; neuroblastom; doxorubicin; gemcitabin; målinriktade läkemedel; ATM;

    Sammanfattning : Neuroblastom är en barncancer som uppstår ur det sympatiska nervsystemet och drabbar omkring 15 barn i Sverige varje år. Högriskvarianten är associerad med mycket hög dödlighet och risk för återfall, vilket tros ha att göra med att tumörernas ovanligt heterogena sammansättning tillåter resistenta subpopulationer att motstå konventionella behandlingsmetoder.

  4. 4. Analyzing the risk of Maladaptation: Implications for adaptation projects among development agencies

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Författare :Bikram Sedhai; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Climate Change Adaptation; Maladaptation; Non-Governmental Organizations; Transformational Adaptation; International aid; Social Sciences; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The need for climate change adaptation is widely acknowledged and adaptation projects around the world are proliferating. Despite being one of the key actors for the implementation of adaptation projects, significant knowledge gaps persist regarding the potential maladaptive outcomes of such projects for international non-governmental organizations.

  5. 5. Mandating transparency on deforestation and ecosystem conversion

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Författare :Moritz Driescher; [2023]
    Nyckelord :sustainability reporting; mandatory disclosure; deforestation; ecosystem conversion; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The production of eggs, meat, and dairy products in the EU indirectly contributes to deforestation and ecosystem conversion (DEC) in Latin America due to extensive imports of soy for animal feed. This thesis explores under which preconditions the mandatory European Sustainability Reporting Standards for the agriculture and farming sector can increase transparency in the opaque soy supply chains and incentivize reductions of imported DEC.
