1. Kön i förändring : Den svenska könsrollsforskningen 1959-1979
Sammanfattning : This doctoral thesis analyzes Swedish sex role research between 1959 and 1979. The focal point of the analysis is how researchers reshaped ideas about sex/gender. This process is put in relation to the political context which affected and was affected by such ideas. LÄS MER
2. Reproductive physiology of the female three-spined stickleback, Gasterosteus aculeatus
Sammanfattning : Reproduction in vertebrates, including fishes, is under control of the brain-pituitary-gonad (BPG) axis. The female three-spined stickleback, Gasterosteus aculeatus, produces egg clutches at intervals of a few days and spawns them in a nest built by male. LÄS MER
3. Splitting the sexes : The birth and senescence of sex chromosomes
Sammanfattning : The evolution of gonochorism from hermaphroditism can be gradual by increasing investment in one sex role while decreasing in the other, or rapid through the fixation of sex-role sterility mutations, eventually leading to the evolution of sex chromosomes. It is expected that the transition will involve a temporary state of gynodioecy or androdioecy as the mutations are not expected to take place at the same time. LÄS MER
4. Depression among Swedish 70-year-olds - Sex differences from a gender perspective
Sammanfattning : Depression is one of the leading causes of global burden of disease. Due to increased life expectancy, late-life depression is an escalating public health issue. The prevalence is reported to be almost twice as high among women compared to men. LÄS MER
5. Sex Chromosome Evolution in a Hermaphrodite : Genetic and phenotypic relationships between sex roles
Sammanfattning : Sex chromosome evolution in a hermaphrodite ancestor starts with the establishment of a sex-determining region (SDR). Over time, sex-specific genes, and/or sexually antagonistic alleles will become linked to the SDR. LÄS MER
