1. 11. Functional genomics of diapause in two temperate butterflies

   Författare :Peter Pruisscher; Karl Gotthard; Dieter Ebert; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; diapause induction; adaptation; genomics; transcriptomics; populationsgenetik; Population Genetics;

   Sammanfattning : Natural selection will act on a given phenotype to maximize fitness in a particular environment, even if this would result in reduced fitness in other environments. In insects some of the strongest selection pressures act on timing life cycles to seasonal variation in environmental conditions, in order to maximize growth, reproduction, and to anticipate the onset of winter.

3. 12. An insight towards food-related microbial sets through metabolic modelling and functional analysis

   Författare :Simonas Marcisauskas; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; RAVEN; gut; systems biology; comparative genomics; Kluyveromyces marxianus; bile acids; genome-scale metabolic model; next-generation sequencing; transcriptomics; thermotolerance;

   Sammanfattning : The dietary food digestion depends on the human gastrointestinal tract, where host cells and gut microbes mutually interact. This interplay may also mediate host metabolism, as shown by microbial-derived secondary bile acids, needed for receptor signalling. Microbes are also crucial in the production of fermented foods, such as wine and dairy. LÄS MER

4. 13. Functional genomics of wood degradation and biosynthesis

   Författare :Alex S. Rajangam; Tuula Teeri; Johan Edqvist; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; populus; xylogenesis; secondary cell wall; cellulose; hemicellulose; microarrays; transcript profiling; Other biology; Övrig biologi;

   Sammanfattning : Forest biotechnology is a fast emerging field of research. The application of biotechnological tools will enhance the quality of the forest products. The resultant value added and environmentally sustainable products are an absolute necessity in the future. LÄS MER

5. 14. Cell wall chemotyping for functional genomics : applications of pyrolysis-gas chromatography / mass spectrometry

   Författare :Lorenz Gerber; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : The interest in lignocellulose as a sustainable resource for energy and materials has fueled research on biotechnology applications in tree breeding to improve biomass production and wood properties. An important aspect of this research is the basic understanding of gene function in wood formation, where analysis of wood chemistry and wood structure is of utmost importance. LÄS MER

7. 15. Into the Single-Verse : Subtle gene expression differences between virtually identical single cells are informative of gene regulation

   Författare :Marcel Tarbier; Marc Friedländer; Nils Blüthgen; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Single-cell; quantitative; RNA biology; miRNA; functional genomics; molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Bioscience;

   Sammanfattning : The ability to profile transcriptomes and proteomes in a high-throughput fashion in single cells has truly revolutionized functional genomics, and countless functional and regulatory insights have been based on these technologies. While major applications include the discovery of new cell types and the a posteriori sorting of cell populations, studies of gene expression noise and gene co-expression have made use of this inter-cellular heterogeneity in a genuine quantitative fashion.
