  1. 1. Adaptive divergence in fission yeast : From experimental evolution to evolutionary genomics

    Författare :Sergio Ivan Tusso Gomez; Jochen B.W. Wolf; Simone Immler; Roger K. Butlin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; adaptation; divergence; selection; experimental evolution; genomics; genome evolution; population genetics; fission yeast; phenotypic variation; Biology with specialization in Evolutionary Genetics; Biologi med inriktning mot evolutionär genetik;

    Sammanfattning : How adaptation and population differentiation occur is fundamental to understand the origin of biodiversity. Work in speciation alongside the increased ease of generating genomic data have allowed the exploration of genomic changes relevant to adaptation. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Hidden biodiversity in an alpine freshwater top predator : Existence, characteristics, and temporal dynamics of cryptic, sympatric brown trout populations

    Författare :Anastasia Andersson; Linda Laikre; Nils Ryman; Paulo Prodöhl; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cryptic sympatry; population genetic structure; sympatric populations; intraspecific biodiversity; genetic monitoring; conservation genetics; trophic polymorphism; genetic connectivity; temporal stability; Salmo trutta; populationsgenetik; Population Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : Intraspecific genetic diversity is imperative to the survival of species in a changing environment, and it plays a vital role in ecosystem function. Since this type of diversity can be difficult to detect it is sometimes referred to as “hidden biodiversity”. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Ecological systems in space: From islands to contiguous landscapes

    Författare :Ankit Vikrant; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ecosystem stability; metacommunity; Metapopulation; community assembly; species area relationships; complex ecological systems;

    Sammanfattning : Dispersal and interaction networks underlie many ecological systems, often dictating spatio-temporal dynamics as well as emergent patterns. Dispersal has implications for establishment for distinct subpopulations of individual species as well as for the emergence of universal spatial patterns and varied community level structures.

  5. 4. Determinants of genomic diversity in the collared flycatcher (Ficedula albicollis)

    Författare :Ludovic Dutoit; Hans Ellegren; Asher Cutter; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; collared flycatcher; Ficedula albicollis; enetic diversity; sexual conflict; effective population size; nucleotide diversity; linked selection; Biology with specialization in Evolutionary Genetics; Biologi med inriktning mot evolutionär genetik;

    Sammanfattning : Individuals vary from each other in their genetic content. Genetic diversity is at the core of the evolutionary theory. Rooted in a solid theoretical framework developed as early as the 1930s, current empirical observations of genomic diversity became possible due to technological advances. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Investigating the impacts of Late Pleistocene climate change on Arctic mammals using palaeogenomics

    Författare :Edana Lord; Love Dalén; Mirte Bosse; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; palaeogenomics; Arctic; Late Pleistocene; past climate; collared lemming; woolly rhinoceros; Norwegian lemming; muskox; demography; population structure; speciation; adaptation; genome erosion; Systematic Zoology; zoologisk systematik och evolutionsforskning;

    Sammanfattning : The climatic fluctuations of the Late Pleistocene likely had a large impact on the evolutionary history of Arctic species. Palaeogenomics is a useful tool to shed light on how past populations responded to these climatic shifts and the associated ice sheet dynamics and sea level change. LÄS MER
