1. 16. Importance of tannins for responses of aspen to anthropogenic nitrogen enrichment

   Författare :Franziska Bandau; Benedicte Albrectsen; Michael Gundale; Lisbeth Josson; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; aspen; foliar condensed tannins; genetic variability; anthropogenic nitrogen enrichment; plant growth; plant defense; litter decomposition; Populus tremula; asp; kondenserade tanniner; genetisk variabilitet; antropogent kväve; tillväxt; växtförsvar; förna nedbrytning; Populus tremula; Environmental Science; miljövetenskap; ekologisk botanik; Ecological Botany; Entomology; entomologi; Physiological Botany; fysiologisk botanik; Population Biology; populationsbiologi;

   Sammanfattning : Boreal forests are often strongly nitrogen (N) limited. However, human activities are leading to increased N inputs into these ecosystems, through atmospheric N deposition and forest fertilization. LÄS MER

3. 17. Ecological drivers and genetic signatures of evolutionary divergence and local adaptation in pike (Esox lucius)

   Författare :Johanna Sunde; Anders Forsman; Anssi Laurila; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; adaptation; differentiation; Esox lucius; evolution; gene flow; genetic admixture; genetic structure; microsatellites; pike; RADseq; salinity tolerance; temperature tolerance; Ecology; Ekologi;

   Sammanfattning : The diversity among species, populations, and individuals in nature is astonishing. Genetic and phenotypic variation constitutes the raw material for evolution. It influences how populations respond to changing environments, and can impact long-term survival of species and ecosystem functioning. LÄS MER

4. 18. Butterfly Diversity and Dispersal in Fragmented Grasslands

   Författare :Erik Öckinger; Biologiska institutionen; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Naturvetenskap; Djurekologi; Animal ecology; Ekologi; Ecology; Lepidoptera; Landscape ecology; Insects; Species richness; Fragmentation; Mobility; Natural science; Source-sink dynamics; Metapopulations;

   Sammanfattning : During the last decades, the distribution and abundance of many European species of birds, plants and insects in agricultural landscapes have declined due to agricultural intensification. To be able to mitigate these declines, it is essential to know the relative importance on local and regional ecological processes on population persistence and patterns of species richness. LÄS MER

5. 19. Bound to the past: Historical contingency in aquatic microbial metacommunities

   Författare :Máté Vass; Silke Langenheder; Steven Declerck; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; metacommunity; historical processes; priority effects; community assembly.; Biology with specialization in Limnology; Biologi med inriktning mot limnologi;

   Sammanfattning : The composition of ecological communities differs due to a combination of different processes, which includes selection by local environmental conditions, dispersal from the regional species pool and random events. Additionally, historical processes such as past dispersal events may leave their imprint on communities as well, resulting in historically contingent communities. LÄS MER

7. 20. Insights into the ecology and genetics of lichens with a cyanobacterial photobiont

   Författare :Katja Fedrowitz; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Nature conservation requires an in-depth understanding of the ecological processes that influence species persistence in the different phases of a species life. In lichens, these phases comprise dispersal, establishment, and growth. LÄS MER
