1. Population Fragmentation and Genetic Variation in Grouse
Sammanfattning : In this thesis the genetic variation of two grouse species, the Chinese grouse (Bonasa sewersowi) and the Black grouse (Tetrao tetrix) was examined with neutral genetic markers: microsatellites. Habitat fragmentation and isolation leads to structuring among and loss of genetic variation within populations. LÄS MER
2. Genetic structuring in natural populations - the influence of life history strategies and asymmetric migration
Sammanfattning : In this thesis I investigate aspects of genetic differentiation and factors influencing the structure of populations. This is done with a special focus on life histories and dispersal strategies common in the marine environment. LÄS MER
3. Genetic Structuring and the Evolution of Lekking Behaviour in the White-bearded Manakin, Manacus manacus
Sammanfattning : Genetic structuring is common in natural populations. It is important to identify and consider population structure when studying evolutionary processes. Recently, the discovery of genetic structuring in some lekking bird species has opened up new perspectives on our understanding of the evolution of lek mating systems. LÄS MER
4. Metapopulations dynamics and sex-specific resource allocation in Silene dioica
Sammanfattning : Rising archipelagos provide unique settings for the study of the temporal and spatial dynamics of their biota. This offers the possibility to study the ecology and genetics of early successional processes; both between islands that differ in age and within islands when already established organisms have to keep pace with the changing environment.

5. Population Genetic Structure of Black Grouse (Tetrao tetrix) : From a Large to a Fine Scale Perspective
Sammanfattning : Black grouse (Tetrao tetrix) is a bird species with a lek mating system found in the Palearctic boreal taiga. It is assumed that it has a continuous distribution along Scandinavia and Siberia, whereas in Central Europe it has declined during the last decades. LÄS MER
