31. Studies towards late blight control in potato
Sammanfattning : Abstract The oomycete Phytophthora infestans, which causes the devastating late blight disease of potato, is notorious for developing resistance to conventional control strategies (fungicide application and resistance breeding by introgression of R gene). To increase our tool box of disease management strategies available to combat P. LÄS MER
32. Novel insights into vacuole-mediated control of plant growth and immunity
Sammanfattning : Plant vacuoles are organelles with numerous biological functions in growth, development, and stress responses. These include maintenance of turgor pressure, storage of minerals and proteins, and degradation of cellular content delivered by endosomal trafficking and autophagy pathways. LÄS MER
33. Resolving deep nodes of eukaryote phylogeny
Sammanfattning : My thesis aims to solve deep nodes in the eukaryote tree of life (eToL), by developing new data sets and new approaches to analysing them. In paper I, I described a dataset of 76 universal eukaryotic proteins of bacterial descent (euBacs), in order to test the relations among the three main divisions of mitochondriate eukaryotes (Amorphea, Diaphretickes and Discoba).

34. Plants as Sources of Natural and Effective Acaricides : Against Ixodes ricinus (Acari: Ixodidae)
Sammanfattning : Ticks and tick-borne diseases are major health hazards worldwide, with increasing numbers of cases of Lyme disease and tick-borne encephalitis reported yearly. Meanwhile, concerns about the environmental impact and safety of chemical acaricides are driving research into alternative control methods, such as plant-based acaricides. LÄS MER
35. Functional roles of protein phase separated assemblies in cellular stress response and proteinopathies
Sammanfattning : For a long time, pertinent biological conundrums, such as the organization and compartmentalization of the cytoplasm and nucleoplasm, perplexed the scientific community. The organization of the complex biochemistry in an accurate space and time manner could not be explained without the enclosure of a membrane. LÄS MER
