1. Heritable epigenetic responses to environmental challenges : Effects on behaviour, gene expression and DNA-methylation in the chicken
Sammanfattning : Phenotypic variation within populations is a crucial factor in evolution and is mainly thought to be driven by heritable changes in the base sequence of DNA. Among our domesticated species we find some of the most variable species on earth today. LÄS MER
2. Stress and the Offspring : Adaptive Transgenerational Effects of Unpredictability on Behaviour and Gene Expression in Chickens (Gallus gallus)
Sammanfattning : Environmental stress has shown to affect both the exposed individuals and the development of their offspring. Generally, it is thought that the stressed organism responds to stress by trying to adapt to it. LÄS MER
3. Epigenetic dysregulation in relation to psychiatric traits in adolescence and adulthood
Sammanfattning : Epigenetics has evolved into a key research focus in the field of psychiatry. DNA methylation is the most researched epigenetic mechanism. In paper I-III, 130 and 93 adolescents were randomly recruited at two separate intervals. LÄS MER
4. Small non-coding RNA in early fly development : plasticity, interactions and improved bioinformatic tools
Sammanfattning : At fertilization, the male and female pronuclei undergo a transformation from germline to pluripotency as they fuse, marking the beginning of Drosophila embryogenesis. As the parental contributions decrease, the zygote takes control of its genome in a process called the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT). LÄS MER
