26. Transmission routes and vector potential of the poultry red mite Dermanyssus gallinae
Sammanfattning : The poultry red mite, Dermanyssus gallinae is a blood-feeding ectoparasite causing irritation, stress, and in severe infection, anemia and death of its avian host. This parasite not only causes welfare problems in poultry but also financial losses in egg production worldwide. The aims of this thesis were to elucidate the transmission routes of D. LÄS MER
27. Host plant choice, habitat selection, dispersal ability and population structure of a threatened butterfly, Lopinga achine
Sammanfattning : Host plant choice, habitat selection and dispersal ability of the red-listed butterfly Lopinga achine were studied in partly open woodland in the province of Östergötland. Females preferred to oviposit near Carex montana, although they did not attach their eggs to any plant. LÄS MER

29. Microbes Associated with Hylobius abietis : A Chemical and Behavioral Study
Sammanfattning : This thesis is based on three inter-related studies: the first part deals with the microbial consortium, the identification of microbes and their volatiles, the second part deals with the study of bio-chemical control methods of two conifer pests; the pine weevil Hylobius abietis (L.) and the root rot fungi Heterobasidion spp. LÄS MER
30. Reproductive physiology of the female three-spined stickleback, Gasterosteus aculeatus
