21. Dispersal, inbreeding and fitness in natural populations
Sammanfattning : To evaluate how inbreeding affects the viability of small populations, it is crucial to determine what constitutes a population (i.e., the number of breeders in local patches and the degree of dispersal), and also to estimate the reproductive consequences of philopatry and emigration.

22. Diversity and phylogeography in Alisma (Alismataceae), with emphasis on Northern European taxa
Sammanfattning : In the present thesis the phylogeny and patterns of genetic diversity of the plant genus Alisma (Alismataceae) were investigated by means of genetic markers (RAPDs, allozymes, and ITS and trnL sequences). Additionally, morphological studies were carried out in paper IV. LÄS MER
23. Intraspecific variation in Rhinanthus angustifolius. Local adaptation, phenotypic plasticity and geographical structure
Sammanfattning : Plant species often adapt to local environmental conditions, which can result in the formation of genetically and phenotypically distinct ecotypes. Ecotypes can evolve rapidly, and may be a first step in the process of ecological speciation. LÄS MER
24. Utilization and allocation of organs for transplantation - medical and ethical aspects
Sammanfattning : Great efforts have been made to find solutions to the shortage of organs, such as extending the donor pool by accepting so-called marginal donors and development of transplantation of organs from animals (xenotransplantation, xt). Due to the scarcity of organs, there is a long tradition of prioritizing among patients on the waiting list for transplantation. LÄS MER
