21. Fungal communities of West African ectomycorrhizal woodlands
Sammanfattning : Ectomycorrhizal symbiosis is a widespread mutualist relationship between fungi and plants, often trees. It is most well-known in temperate and boreal forests, but also occurs in a variety of tropical ecosystems, including Sudanian savanna woodlands and gallery forests in West Africa. LÄS MER
22. The Origin of the Genus Flavivirus and the Ecology of Tick-Borne Pathogens
Sammanfattning : The present thesis examines questions related to the temporal origin of the Flavivirus genus and the ecology of tick-borne pathogens. In the first study, we date the origin and divergence time of the Flavivirus genus. It has been argued that the first flaviviruses originated after the last glacial maximum. LÄS MER
23. Environmental sequencing to infer patterns of eukaryotic evolution : Combining long-read and short-read metabarcoding
Sammanfattning : Our view of eukaryotes is biased towards plants, animals, and fungi. But the vast majority of eukaryotic diversity is microbial in nature. These microbial eukaryotes are key players in all ecosystems on earth and are collectively known as protists. LÄS MER
24. The puzzle of lichen symbiosis : Pieces from Thamnolia
Sammanfattning : Symbiosis brought important evolutionary novelties to life on Earth. Lichens, the symbiotic entities formed by fungi, photosynthetic organisms and bacteria, represent an example of a successful adaptation in surviving hostile environments. Yet many aspects of the lichen symbiosis remain unexplored. LÄS MER
