1. Development and Application of Genomic Resources in Non-model Bird Species
Sammanfattning : Understanding the genetic basis of biological processes is a fundamental component of modern ecology and evolutionary biology studies. With the recent advent of next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies, it is now possible to perform large genome and transcriptome projects for ecologically important non-model species. LÄS MER
2. Genetic variation and inference of demographic histories in non-model species
Sammanfattning : Both long-term environmental changes such as those driven by the glacial cycles and more recent anthropogenic impacts have had major effects on the past demography in wild organisms. Within species, these changes are reflected in the amount and distribution of neutral genetic variation. LÄS MER
3. Advances in studying the role of genetic divergence and recombination in adaptation in non-model species
Sammanfattning : Understanding the role of genetic divergence and recombination in adaptation is crucial to understanding the evolutionary potential of species since they can directly affect the levels of genetic variation present within populations or species. Genetic variation in the functional parts of the genome such as exons or regulatory regions is the raw material for evolution, because natural selection can only operate on phenotypic variation already present in the population.

4. Polyploid Phylogenetics in Plants: Insights on non-model organisms in Fabaceae and Malvaceae
Sammanfattning : Genome duplication is a common phenomenon in angiosperms and advances in sequencing technologies and bioinformatics is now revealing its prevalence and significance. In a polyploidization event all genes in a genome are doubled. LÄS MER
5. Inferring demographic history and speciation of grouse using whole genome sequences
Sammanfattning : From an ecological perspective, knowledge of demographic history is highly valuable because population size fluctuations can be matched to known climatic events, thereby revealing great insight into a species’ reaction to past climate change. This in turn enables us to predict how they might respond to future climate scenarios. LÄS MER
