  1. 1. Genetic consequences of translocations in the Doñana population of the endangered Iberian lynx

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Gaia Mora; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Conservation Genetics; Iberian lynx conservation; endangered species; species conservation;

    Sammanfattning : Conservation genetics for endangered species is crucial in long-term conservation actions.Inbreeding depression and genetic diversity are main genetic parameters with relevance toconservation. The Iberian lynx was by 2002 the most endangered felid in the world. LÄS MER

  2. 2. 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. 3. A population genomic approach to investigate potential island effects in the cryptic wood white butterfly (Leptidea juvernica) : Do island populations have lower genetic diversity and less efficient selection than mainland populations?

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Xuejing Hu; [2022]
    Nyckelord :island effect;

    Sammanfattning : Due to limited geographic ranges, island populations, in general, are expected to have smaller population sizes and a limited influx of migrants compared to populations inhabiting continental mainlands. Therefore, island populations are expected to be influenced by genetic drift and natural selection differently from mainland populations. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Who calls the African Wild Dog? : de novo SNP discovery and genotyping in the Lycaon pictus

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Författare :Mathilda Bertills; [2021]
    Nyckelord :snp; single nucleotide polymorphism; african wild dog; lycaon pictus; conservation;

    Sammanfattning : Large carnivores, especially the African wild dog, Lycaon pictus, are vulnerable to human-mediated changes and climate effects. As they are apex predators, they also affect lower trophic levels. Due to anthropogenic land-use changes affecting habitat, prey, and population densities, large carnivore populations are declining.

  5. 5. Genetic diversity status and associations with sperm quality characteristics in farmed Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus L.) across Sweden

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

    Författare :Anam Anjum; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Arctic charr; dd-RADseq; genetic diversity; GWAS; reproductive success;

    Sammanfattning : The national breeding programme of Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus L.) has been of fundamental importance for the expansion of Arctic charr farming across Sweden. Selection has been ongoing since 1980s documenting approximately 10% improvement per generation regarding growth related traits. LÄS MER
