  1. 1. A bear-y strong comeback: Investigating temporal genomic consequences of a recent demographic bottleneck in the Scandinavian brown bear

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Amanda Lindahl; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Evolutionary biology; ancient DNA; bottleneck; whole-genome sequencing;

    Sammanfattning : The Scandinavian brown bear went through a severe bottleneck due to human actions in the early 1900’s that reduced the population to low numbers. After protective measures were taken, the population recovered and today it consists of around 3000 individuals. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Optimised PCR protocol for ten microsatellite primers (SSRs) in Fragaria vesca : Facilitating future work analysing genetic diversity and developing efficient conservation strategies

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

    Författare :Lisa Haglund; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Crop wild relatives CWR ; PCR; Microsatellites; Fragaria vesca; Conservation; Genetic diversity;

    Sammanfattning : The world faces severe challenges in providing food security for a growing world population during climate change. This puts pressure on modern agriculture, including adapting crops to new environments and cultivation on less acreage. The tools for adapting crops exist within a species' genetic diversity.

  3. 3. Optimisation of PCR Protocol for Microsatellites in Vaccinium myrtillus : A first step in evaluating genetic diversity for future conservation

    Kandidat-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Biologi

    Författare :Sandra Fahlgren; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Crop wild relatives; Conservation; Genetic diversity; Vaccinium myrtillus; Microsatellites; PCR; Annealing temperature;

    Sammanfattning : A growing world population means an increase in crop demand. At the same time climate change threatens food security as crops may become maladapted to a new environment. We need to adapt crops to increase crop yield and become resistant to a changed environment to meet this. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Identifying Genetic Causes of Hybrid Necrosis in Arrabidopsis lyrata

    Kandidat-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Författare :Carlos Valbuena-Gonzalo; [2019]
    Nyckelord :ACD6; deleterious gene interactions; DM9; dwarfism; microsatellites;

    Sammanfattning : Deleterious gene interactions due to accumulation of individual genetic variations between different lineages are a cause of population diversification by creating reproductive barriers that ultimately lead to differentiation of species. One type of deleterious interactions is called “hybrid necrosis”, in which epistatic interactions between some plant immunity genes (usually very variable) cause autoimmunities that produce a necrotic and dwarf phenotype.

  5. 5. Polyandry and genetic diversity in populations of Pholidoptera griseoaptera along an environmental gradient

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Författare :Matilda Jutzeler; [2019]
    Nyckelord :polyandry; genetic diversity; multiple mating; microsatellites; nuptial gift; phenotype;

    Sammanfattning : Polyandry is a common mating pattern in different insect species and it leads to increased genetic diversity in the offspring and prevents inbreeding in populations. According to the theory of mate choice, mates should choose a partner that will increase heterozygosity in their offspring. LÄS MER
