11. Genomics and Transcriptomics of Behaviour and Plumage Colouration
Sammanfattning : The aim throughout this thesis has been to investigate the underlying genetics of behaviours and feather colour and plumage patterns by using chickens as a model organism. Chickens are extremely important as a food source, both in terms of egg, as well as meat production. LÄS MER
12. Immunity & the butterfly : A functional genomic study of natural variation in immunity
Sammanfattning : Butterflies are ubiquitous and abundant, occurring in a wide variety of environments that contain diverse microbial communities with varied pathogenic pressures. These pathogens and parasites present a constant threat to organisms, and have led to the evolution of complex and intricate immune responses. LÄS MER
13. Birds as a Model for Comparative Genomic Studies
Sammanfattning : Comparative genomics provides a tool to investigate large biological datasets, i.e. genomic datasets. In my thesis I focused on inferring patterns of selection in coding and non-coding regions of avian genomes. LÄS MER
14. Annotating and making use of the Avena sativa cv. Sang reference genome
Sammanfattning : Oats is an important cereal used for both food and feed. The topic of this thesis is the annotation of the genome of oat (Avena sativa) cv. Sang, as well as some of the things this genome and its annotation have been used for. LÄS MER
15. A functional genomic investigation of an alternative life history strategy : The Alba polymorphism in Colias croceus
Sammanfattning : Life history traits affect the timing and pattern of maturation, reproduction, and survival during an organism’s lifecycle and are the major components influencing Darwinian fitness. Co-evolved patterns of these traits are known as life history strategies (LHS) and variation occurs between individuals, populations, and species. LÄS MER
