  1. 1. Milk Genomics – Impact of Genetic Polymorphism on Bovine Milk Composition and Processability

    Författare :Maria Glantz; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; milk genomics; bovine milk; milk composition; technological properties; processability; cheese; quantitative genetic evaluation; single gene effect; genomic selection; genetic polymorphism; leptin; direct genomic value;

    Sammanfattning : Milk genomics is a new area of research that explores the relations between cow genetics and milk characteristics. Identifying the genes controlling compositional and technological traits of milk will give opportunities to select cows for targeted milk production. In this thesis, the impact of different genetic approaches, i.e. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Fungal disease dynamics, genetic variation and biodiversity-yield relationships : — a study along a gradient of coffee management in southwestern Ethiopia

    Författare :Beyene Zewdie Hailu; Kristoffer Hylander; Ayco J.M Tack; Jacques Avelino; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Armillaria root rot; biodiversity; biodiversity-yield trade-offs; coffee; Coffea arabica; coffee berry disease; coffee leaf rust; coffee wilt disease; coffee yield; genetic composition; genetic diversity; hyperparasite; management intensity gradient; southwestern Ethiopia; Plant Ecology; växtekologi;

    Sammanfattning : Intensification of agricultural systems is a major threat to the associated biodiversity and could also affect the dynamics of pests and pathogens. One such system that is currently under an intensification trajectory is the production of Arabica coffee. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Game of crops : genetic composition and adaptation of seed orchard crops

    Författare :Alisa Heuchel; Xiao-Ru Wang; David Hall; Ulfstand Wennström; Jaroslaw Burczyk; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; seed orchards; GBS; linear deployment; tree improvement; genetic diversity; adapation; topgrafting; Scots pine; Norway spruce; improved reforestation material; field performance; flowering stimulation; fertility variation; Genetics; genetik; environmental science; miljövetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Orchard populations are artificial and intensively managed populations of elite, best-performing trees that are established for mass production of genetically improved seeds. Seed orchards connect cycles of selection, breeding, and testing of plus-trees with the deployment of the improved seeds at the operational plantations. LÄS MER

  5. 4. On certain genetic and metabolic risk factors for carotid stenosis and stroke

    Författare :Pär Wanby; Lars Brudin; Martin Carlsson; Milita Crisby; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Carotid artery diseases; Carrier proteins; genetics; Cerebrovascular accident; Cerebrovascular disorders; Genetic predisposition to disease; Polymorphism; genetic; Medicine; Medicin; Medicin;

    Sammanfattning : The present study evaluated genetic and metabolic factors influencing the risk of acute cerebrovascular disease (CVD) and internal carotid artery stenosis (ICA stenosis) in a Swedish community. The threonine (T) containing protein of the FABP2 A54T gene polymorphism has a greater affinity for long chain fatty acids (FFAs) than the alanine (A) containing protein. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Body composition of parents and their infants : methodological, anthropometric, metabolic and genetic studies

    Författare :Pontus Henriksson; Elisabet Forsum; Marie Löf; Jonathan Wells; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Body composition in infancy may be of importance for later health. In particular, infant body composition may be relevant regarding obesity risk in childhood. LÄS MER
