    Sammanfattning : The aim of the dissertation is to examine the analytical potential of  the ”material turn” within the field of literary studies. In particular, it explores how theoretical perspectives associated with the material turn may shed light on the work of four writers: Henry Parland (Finland, 1908–1930), Clarice Lispector (Brazil, 1920–1977), Aase Berg (Sweden, b.

  2. 2. New insights into plant amino acid transport and its contribution to nitrogen nutrition

    Författare :Iftikhar Ahmad; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Nitrogen (N) is a crucial element for plant growth and development, as it is a key constituent of numerous plant metabolites and structural components. However, most plant N is in the form of amino acids, which are building blocks of proteins, precursors of many secondary metabolites and the “currency” of N within plants (i.e. LÄS MER

  3. 3. FtsH metalloproteases and their pseudo-proteases in the chloroplast envelope of Arabidopsis thaliana

    Sammanfattning : By cleaving peptide bonds, proteases either activate or degrade proteins and maintain protein quality control in response to various developmental stimuli and environmental factors. My work has focused on elucidating the role of the filamentation temperature sensitive protein H (FtsH) proteases. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Regionalismo ensamblado : Medioambiente, modernidad y reacción político-cultural en Latinoamérica (1930-1940)

    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; regionalism; Latin American literature; world-ecology; extractivism; assemblage theory; new materialism; posthumanism; ecocriticism; nature-culture; environment; modernity; Enrique Bernardo Núñez; Carmen Lyra; César Uribe Piedrahita; regionalismo; literatura latinoamericana; ecología-mundo; extractivismo; teoría del ensamblaje; nuevo materialismo; posthumanismo; ecocrítica; naturaleza-cultura; medioambiente; modernidad; Enrique Bernardo Núñez; Carmen Lyra; César Uribe Piedrahita; romanska språk med inriktning mot spanska; Romance Languages; Specialisation in Spanish;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation reframes Latin American literary regionalism as the configuration of an alternative political-cultural reaction in the 1930s-1940s. It argues that such an approach questions the precepts of Eurocentric modernity, going beyond the nuanced conceptualization of the environment as a nature-culture dichotomy. LÄS MER

  5. 5. The Role of Information in Production Ramp-up Situations

    Författare :SABINA FJÄLLSTRÖM; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; production ramp-up; information source; Manufacturing industry; information;

    Sammanfattning : To meet customer demands and global competition, the frequency of new product introductions in the manufacturing industry has increased. As the frequency and thereby number of production ramp-ups increases, ramp-up will no longer be an occasional event but will become a part of daily production challenges. LÄS MER
