  1. 6. Impact of experimental soil moisture manipulation on tropical tree seedling demographic fates and functional traits

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för ekologi och genetik

    Författare :Roel Lammerant; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Tropical forest; Drought; Seedlings; Experimental;

    Sammanfattning : In tropical regions, climate change is predicted to lead to increased drought frequency and intensity. The extent to which this will shift the functional diversity of tropical tree communities is unknown due to a limited understanding about the response of seedlings to variable soil moisture. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Evaluation of the impact of mitochondrial variation in the estimation of breeding values for dairy cattle

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

    Författare :Gabriela Mafra Fortuna; [2021]
    Nyckelord :mitogenome; variance components; milk yield; simulation;

    Sammanfattning : Mitochondria are independent cellular components responsible for cellular respiration. Through oxidative phosphorylation they convert Adenosine diphosphate and inorganic phosphate into Adenosine Triphosphate, ATP, the essential molecule sourced by all intracellular metabolic processes.

  3. 8. Evaluation of in vitro antagonism assays in the mycoparasitic fungus Clonostachys rosea

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

    Författare :Victor Olsson; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Biocontrol; Biocontrol agent; Clonostachys rosea; Fusarium gramine-arum;

    Sammanfattning : Fungicide use is the dominant direct method to control fungal pathogens on crops in agriculture. While effective, excessive use of them can be harmful to biodiversity and lead to fungicide resistance in pathogen populations. Biocontrol is an alternative where natural antagonistic organisms, called biocontrol agents (BCA), are used to protect crops. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Five Scots Pine Orthologues to QTLs Associated with Resistance Against H. parviporum in Norway Spruce

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

    Författare :Emil Bengtsson; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Heterobasidion annosum; H. annosum s.s; plant breeding; forest pathology; Scots pine; SNPs; Pinus sylvestris; QTL resistance;

    Sammanfattning : Heterobasidion annosum s.l. (sensu lato, in the broad sense) is a fungal complex consisting of five partly intersterile species and is regarded as the most devastating forestry pest in the northern hemisphere. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Time Constraint and Genetic (Phenotypic) Variation in Wing Shape in a Damselfly Along a Latitudinal Gradient

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Meagan Tunon; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Damselfly; time constraint; wing shape; morphology; climate change;

    Sammanfattning : This degree project examined the effect of time constraint on wing shape and phenotypic variation in wing shape along a latitudinal gradient in the damselfly species Lestes sponsa. Fore and hind wings from individuals originating from three different latitudes: North (66°N), Central (59°N) and South (54°N) Europe were treated with their native temperature and photoperiod.
