  1. 6. Genome mapping of the horse

    Författare :Gabriella Lindgren; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Horse; microsatellites; linkage analysis; FISH; Type I markers; BAc library; Y chromosome; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; Evolutionary Genetics; evolutionär genetik;

    Sammanfattning : Our ability to map and sequence whole genomes is one of the most important developments in biological science. It will provide us with an unprecedented insight into the genetic background of phenotypic traits, such as disease resistance, reproduction and growth and also makes it feasible to study the processes of genome evolution.

  2. 7. Conservation Genetics of Wolves and their Relationship with Dogs

    Författare :Anna-Karin Sundqvist; Carles Vilà; Hans Ellegren; Michael K Schwartz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Molecular genetics; mtDNA; Y chromosome; microsatellites; breed; hybridization; domestication; introgression; predation; Genetik; Canis lupus; Canis familiaris;

    Sammanfattning : Management of wolves is a complex issue, and molecular genetics is an important tool in this work. Molecular genetics can provide important information at the species, population and individual level, which can be essential for the development of management programs aiming at the long term survival of wolf populations.

  3. 8. Sensitive Identification Tools in Forensic DNA Analysis

    Författare :Hanna Edlund; Marie Allen; Niels Morling; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :forensic genetics; STRs; Y-chromosome; Pyrosequencing; mitochondrial DNA; skeletal remains; DNA extraction; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Medicinsk genetik; Medical Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : DNA as forensic evidence is valuable in criminal investigations. Implementation of new, sensitive and fast technologies is an important part of forensic genetic research. This thesis aims to evaluate new sensitive methods to apply in forensic DNA analysis including analysis of old skeletal remains. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Conservation genomics in inbred Scandinavian wolves using bioinformatic methods

    Författare :Linnéa Smeds; Hans Ellegren; Giorgio Bertorelle; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; conservation genomics; Canis lupus; bioinformatics; Y chromosome; admixture; genetic load; structural variation; GWAS; Biology with specialization in Evolutionary Genetics; Biologi med inriktning mot evolutionär genetik;

    Sammanfattning : With the recent and unprecedented progress in retrieving DNA sequence information from a large number of individuals of any species, conservation genetic research has entered a new phase. Specifically, it has become possible to study how genomes of endangered species respond to reductions in population size. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Population Genetics of Human Genomic Elements

    Författare :Thijessen Naidoo; Mattias Jakobsson; Guillaume Achaz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; population genetics; human genome; functional elements; natural selection; pseudogenes; loss-of-function; gene regulation; Y chromosome; Biology with Specialisation in Human Evolution and Genetics; Biologi med inriktning mot människans evolution och genetik;

    Sammanfattning : The genomes of living organisms are composed of a multitude of functional units, which interact with each other and their environment in a highly regulated fashion, to facilitate the expression of an enduring (and evolving) phenotype. Several approaches have emerged in the effort to identify these functional units and explore their activities. LÄS MER
