11. States of Development : Essays on the Political Economy of Development in Asia
Sammanfattning : Manufacturing Revolutions - Industrial Policy and Networks in South Korea. This chapter uses a historic big push intervention and newly digitized data from South Korea to study the effects of industrial policy on industrial development. In 1973 South Korea transitioned to a military dictatorship and drastically changed their development strategy. LÄS MER
12. The role of subsoil properties for phosphorus leaching in agricultural soils
Sammanfattning : Phosphorus (P) leaching from agricultural land is a large contributor to eutrophication of many surface waters and the Baltic Sea. Better knowledge of P sorption and release in the subsoil could enable the development of effective mitigation strategies for P leaching. LÄS MER
13. Novel insights into the action of SHI/STY transcriptional regulators during plant development
Sammanfattning : One key player in plant organogenesis is the phytohormone auxin, and this thesis reveal that members of the SHI/STY gene family participate in the regulation of auxin homeostasis and organ development in Arabidopsis thaliana. Using inducible constructs, ChIP, and EMSA, we could show that the SHI/STY members act as transcriptional activators directly binding to the promoter of the auxin biosynthesis gene YUC4. LÄS MER
14. Cognition and decision-making in adoption of agricultural decision support systems : the case of precision agriculture
Sammanfattning : Precision agriculture (PA) has a central role to play in a sustainable intensification trajectory of agriculture, including increased yields and decreased environmental impact. Although grounded in advanced technologies this still implies that the individual farmer will have to develop knowledge that is complex, diverse and local. LÄS MER
15. Regulation of embryo development in Norway spruce by WOX transcription factors
Sammanfattning : In seed plants, the apical-basal axis of the plant body is established during early embryogenesis. Major regulatory genes of the apical-basal axis formation belong to the WUSCHEL-RELATED HOMEOBOX (WOX) gene family of transcription factors. LÄS MER
