  1. 6. Characterization of Antigenic Properties of Two Immunogenic Proteins of Streptococcus pneumoniae 

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Författare :Mawj Jasimalsalih; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Immunogenic Proteins; PrsA; MalX; Membrane Vesicles; Protein Properties; Streptococcus pneumoniae virulence factors;

    Sammanfattning : The bacterium Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus), is considered to be a leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally, particularly in infants and the elderly. It is one of the most frequent causes of respiratory tract infections, which sporadically have the potential to develop into serious invasive symptoms including sepsis and meningitis. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Characterization of Mitilysin Pores by Cryo-electron Microscopy

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Vladimir Novakovic; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Mitilysin; Mly; Structural Biology; Cryo-EM; pore; toxin; pore forming proteins; pore forming toxins; PFP; PFT;

    Sammanfattning : Pore forming toxins (PFTs) are a large group of proteins found mainly in bacteria with some exceptions found in animals. They bind and form pores in their target membranes and form pores, which leads to cell death. Among these are cholesterol-dependent cytolysins (CDC), which require the presence of cholesterol to bind target membranes. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Analysing rapeseed leaves from naturally infested fields in Skaraborg to detect Sclerotinia sclerotiorum using Nanopore sequencing

    Magister-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Muhammad Siddiq; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Rapeseed is a versatile crop with significant economic value as fuel, food, and feed, contributing to farmers' income. However, its cultivation is often hindered by the devastating plant pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, which infects numerous plant species, including rapeseed. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Biological control of verticillium stem striping disease on oilseed rape : fungi as friends and foes

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology

    Författare :André Åbonde; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Biological control; Oilseed rape; Clonostachys rosea; Verticillium longisporum; Verticllium stem striping disease;

    Sammanfattning : The cultivation of oilseed rape faces challenges caused by pests and pathogens, and soil-borne pathogens such as Plasmodiaphora brassicae (clubroot) are among the main causes of disease. Verticillium longisporum is another soil-borne pathogen, which causes the verticillium stem striping disease in Brassica plants, including oilseed rape. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Investigating fungicide resistance of Alternaria solani, a Solanaceae pathogen, on potato crops in south-eastern Sweden and its relationship with soil

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Plant Protection Biology

    Författare :Emma Lefèvre; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Alternaria solani; fungicide resistance; Fluopyram; mycelial growth; type of soil; soil conditions;

    Sammanfattning : Alternaria solani is a worldwide present fungus that can cause a lot of damage such as early blight in potato crops. Potato can suffer a lot of yield losses because of this pathogen, and the main method used today to fight against it, is the application of fungicides. LÄS MER
