1. On the Origins of mobile Antibiotic Resistance Genes : A comparative genomics approach
Sammanfattning : Mobile antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), transferable between bacterial cells, are major contributors to the antibiotic resistance crisis we are facing today. From which organisms pathogens acquired these genes is mostly unknown, yet knowledge about their origin is needed in order to limit the emergence and spread of novel ARGs in the future. LÄS MER
2. Comparative Genomics in Diplomonads : Lifestyle Variations Revealed at Genetic Level
Sammanfattning : As sequencing technologies advance genome studies are becoming a basic tool for studying an organism, and with more genomes available comparative genomics is maturing into a powerful tool for biological research. This thesis demonstrates the strength of a comparative genomics approach on a group of understudied eukaryotes, the diplomonads. LÄS MER
3. Gall induction in gall wasps (Cynipidae s. lat.) : Insights from comparative genomics
Sammanfattning : Cynipidae are a family of wasps (Hymenoptera), whose larval stages develop inside plant galls, that is, abnormal plant structures formed in response to the presence of foreign organisms. Most cynipids are gall inducers and are often capable of notable levels of host manipulation. LÄS MER
4. Speciation genomics : A perspective from vertebrate systems
Sammanfattning : Species are vital entities in biology. Species are generally considered to be discrete entities, consisting of a group of (usually interbreeding) individuals that are similar in phenotype and genetic composition, yet differ in significant ways from other species. LÄS MER
5. Comparative Genomics of Endosymbiotic Bacteria
Sammanfattning : Genomes of intracellular bacteria are thought to be the products of reductive evolution. They have evolved from ancestral genomes of free-living bacteria through a process of massive gene loss. LÄS MER
