  1. 6. Characterization of xenobiotic metabolism in the feral teleost northern pike (Esox lucius)

    Författare :Lennart Balk; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : A basic characterization of xenobiotic metabolism in the feral teleost Northern pike has been performed. The different aspects of concern have been:a) investigation of the uptake and distribution to different body compartments of the carcinogen and environmental pollutant benzo(a)pyrene using whole-body autoradiography and scintillation counting.

  3. 7. Fish foraging under visual constraints

    Författare :Mikael Jönsson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; planktivore.; piscivore; brownification; visual foraging; Turbidity;

    Sammanfattning : Visual conditions are changing in several different ways. Some lakes are getting turbid due to eutrophication or erosion while others are getting browner due to brownification. These two types of visual degradation results in completely different optical properties of lakes. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Phenotypic plasticity and the evolution of an inducible morphological defence in crucian carp

    Författare :Lars Pettersson; Biodiversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Animal ecology; Benefits; Costs; Predation; Chemical cues; Fish; Djurekologi;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, I have investigated factors (cues, benefits, and costs) affecting the evolution of an inducible morphological defence in crucian carp (Carassius carassius). Inducible defences are favoured over permanent defences when prey have reliable cues to detect predators, when defences are effective but costly, and when predation pressure is variable and unpredictable, but sometimes strong.

  5. 9. Assessing and monitoring genetic patterns for conservation purposes with special emphasis on Scandinavia

    Författare :Anna Palmé; Nils Ryman; Linda Laikre; Kerry Naish; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biological diversity; conservation genetics; management unit; spatial genetic structure; sympatric populations; genetic monitoring; release of alien populations; northern pike; brown trout; harbour porpoise; Biology; Biologi; populationsgenetik; Population Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : Genetic variation is essential for biological evolution, for maintaining viability of populations, and to ensure ecosystem resilience. Increased human exploitation and environmental change result in rapid loss of biological variation, including genetic diversity. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Local adaptation in life history traits and population size estimation of aquatic organisms

    Författare :Konrad Karlsson; Monika Winder; Johan Ehrlén; Juha Merilä; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; local adaptation; intraspecific variation; niche partitioning; life history; global warming; recreational angling; spatial capture–recapture; Marine Ecology; marin ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : Human society is dependent on healthy aquatic ecosystems for our basic needs and well-being. Therefore, knowledge about how organisms respond and interact with their environments is pivotal. LÄS MER
