  1. 16. Bacteria in the vagina during the estrous cycle in mares

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Författare :Timjan Åkerholm; [2023]
    Nyckelord :artificial insemination; bacteriology; breeding; embryo transfer; equine reproduction; estrous cycle; ovulation; stud farm; vagina;

    Sammanfattning : An understanding of the normal bacterial flora of any organ is essential to provide the background to conditions and interventions that might cause the flora to change. In the vagina of the mare, a change of bacterial flora could be induced by introduction of semen, treatment with antibiotics, backflow from an unhealthy uterus etc. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Exploring the genetic cause of myotonic dystrophy in horses

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

    Författare :Thomas Simon; [2023]
    Nyckelord :genetics; bioinformatics; myotonic dystrophy; horses; variant analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Myotonic Dystrophy (MD) is an inherited neuromuscular disorder that leads to a wide range of clinical signs including stiffness, abnormal muscle relaxation, and muscle atrophy or hypertrophy. Affected muscles develop a prolonged contracture in response to percussion of the muscle and show waxing and waning complex repetitive discharges in electromyography (EMG). LÄS MER

  4. 18. Secrets of the Seeds : exploring the relationship between seed morphology and seed quality in Lepidium campestre, a novel oil crop for Northern Sweden

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

    Författare :Ludvig Pettersson Landgren; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Lepidium campestre; field cress; oil crop; plant breeding; domestication; seed morphology; seed colour; seed analysis; Northern Sweden; glucosinolate;

    Sammanfattning : This study set out to explore relationships between seed morphology and qualitative traits in field cress, Lepidium campestre, with the goal of assisting the breeding process of this crop under domestication. A collection of seeds of L. campestre as well as related species was analysed for weight and size using a MARViN seed analyser. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Hunduppfödares kunskap om förlossning och förlossningsrelaterade komplikationer hos hund i Sverige

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Författare :Clarissa Mulder Nuorinko; Emma Olivier; [2023]
    Nyckelord :avel; djuromvårdnad; dystoki; enkät; förlossning; förlossningskomplikation; kunskapsnivå; uppfödare;

    Sammanfattning : Förlossningsrelaterade komplikationer, eller dystoki, förekommer i viss mån hos samtliga hundraser och blandraser och kan i vissa fall försätta både tik och valpar i fara för skada eller död. Det har av studier framkommit att en tidig upptäckt och intervention är essentiell för att minska mortalitet i situationen. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Egg-laying and nesting behavior of common eider at Stora Karlsö

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Anna Olsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The population of common eider (Somateria mollissima) has suffered a dramatic decline in several breeding locations since the 1990s. Predation is described as one of the main reasons, along with other suggested explanations such as food shortage, environmental pollutants, and thiamine shortage. LÄS MER
