21. Linkage maps in studies of genetic variation - examples from Beta vulgaris
Sammanfattning : Today, most studies of genetic variation utilise molecular markers, making it possible to detect variation at the DNA level. This has greatly facilitated studies of genetic variation in population and evolutionary genetics, systematics and transmission genetics. LÄS MER
22. Performance of dairy cows and calves in agro-pastoral production systems
Sammanfattning : Seasonal changes in pasture quality and quantity and cattle management routines were examined on 10 farms in southwest Uganda in order to evaluate how these factors affected milk yield, live weight and body condition in cows and daily weight gain in calves in agro-pastoral production systems in a semi-arid environment. Mean available herbage mass ranged between 0. LÄS MER
23. Extensions of the Reed-Frost process
Sammanfattning : The Reed-Frost process is a discrete time stochastic model for the spread of an infectious disease in a homogeneous population. In this work, extensions of the basic model are investigated. LÄS MER
24. Development of Variance Component Methods for Genetic Dissection of Complex Traits
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents several developments on Variance component (VC) approach for Quantitative Trait Locus (QTL) mapping. The first part consists of methodological improvements: a new fast and efficient method for estimating IBD matrices, have been developed. LÄS MER
25. Hopeful monsters: The role of hybrids in adaptation : The impact of hybridisation and genetic diversity on adaptation to stressful and novel environments
Sammanfattning : Adaptation to novel environments can only occur if natural selection has the raw material to act upon. But small, endangered populations are often genetically depleted, and the acquisition of beneficial de novo mutations often takes too long when population face quick and extreme environmental change.
