  1. 1. Mosses as mediators of climate change : implications for tree seedling establishment in the tundra

    Författare :Signe Lett; Ellen Dorrepaal; David Wardle; Marie-Charlotte Nilsson; Vigdis Vandvik; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; arctic; alpine; B. pubescens; bryophytes; competition; facilitation; mosses; P. sylvestris; precipitation changes; seedlings; traits; tree line; warming;

    Sammanfattning : Alpine and arctic tree line expansion depends on the establishment of tree seedlings above the current tree line, which is expected to occur with climate warming. However, tree lines often fail to respond to higher temperatures. Other environmental factors are therefore likely important for tree seedling establishment. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Alternative NAD(P)H dehydrogenases in plant mitochondria - localisation, catalytic functions and physiological roles

    Författare :Agnieszka Michalecka; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Kärlväxters fysiologi; Physiology of vascular plants; NAD P H dehydrogenase; light-dependence; electron transport chain; alamethicin; alternative oxidase;

    Sammanfattning : In addition to complex I, the plant mitochondrial electron transport chain possesses several alternative NAD(P)H dehydrogenases, not present in animals. These enzymes allow nonenergy-conserving electron transfer from cytoplasmic and matrix NAD(P)H to ubiquinone. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Effects of methyl jasmonate on chemical defenses of conifer seedlings in relation to feeding by Hylobius abietis

    Sammanfattning : The chemical elicitor methyl jasmonate (MeJA) could replace insecticides in Europe and Asia for protection of young conifers against the pine weevil (Hylobius abietis). This thesis mainly focuses on the effects of MeJA treatment on chemical defenses of conifers from seedling batches with documented field resistance. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Alternative pathways in the plant respiratory chain -transgenic analyses of type II NAD(P)H dehydrogenases

    Författare :Sabá Wallström; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : During oxidative phosphorylation, the production of ATP is driven by the activity of several proton-pumping respiratory protein complexes. In plants, non-proton pumping type II NAD(P)H dehydrogenases are also present in the respiratory chain to oxidize cytosolic and matrix NAD(P)H. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Regeneration in continuous cover forestry systems

    Författare :Charlotta Erefur; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of the studies underlying this thesis has been to qualify and quantify the regeneration of tree species in a range of typical growing environments of possible Continuous Cover Forestry (CCF) silvicultural systems in boreal forests of northern Sweden. Data presented in Papers I and II show that the light environment did not differ significantly between points at different distances to trees, but it was clearly affected by the stand stem density (SSD).
