    Sammanfattning : African elephants are ‘keystone’ species with respect to biodiversity conservation in Africa since they maintain habitats that support several animal communities by changing vegetation structure through foraging and by dispersing seeds between landscapes. Elephants are also ‘flagship’ species because, given their impressive size, they can make people sympathetic and stimulate local and international concerns for their protection. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Phylogenetic relationships and species richness of coprophilous ascomycetes

    Nyckelord :NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ß-tubulin; Bayesian analysis; dung; forage; fungi; moose; parsimony; phylogeny; Pleosporales; spore dispersal; Sporormiaceae; Terrestrial ecology; Terrestisk ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : Coprophilous ascomycetes are a diverse group of saprobes, of which many belong to three families, Delitschiaceae, Phaeotrichaceae and Sporormiaceae, within the large order Pleosporales. The natural relationships and circumscription of these families are unclear, especially within the family Sporormiaceae, where the generic delimitation have been questioned. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Endophytic fungi in meadow fescue and other forage grasses

    Författare :Anja Bylin; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Many cool-season forage grasses associate with an endophytic fungus of the genus Epichloë. In Sweden one of the most important forage grasses is meadow fescue (Festuca pratensis Huds.), which is known to associate with Epichloë uncinata, previously named Neotyphodium uncinatum. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Factors affecting fatty acid composition in forage and milk

    Författare :Katarina Arvidsson Segerkvist; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The aims of the studies underlying this thesis were to evaluate variations in fatty acid (FA) contents of plants used as forage for dairy cows in northern Sweden, and their effects on the FA contents of the milk. Initially, samples of timothy (Phleum pratense L.) were subjected to different pre-treatments prior to analysis. LÄS MER
