  1. 1. How can an organism´s life experience affect their descendants? Insights from epigenetic and transgenerational effects of chemical exposure in zebrafish

    Författare :Mélanie Blanc; Steffen Keiter; Joëlle Rüegg; Xavier Cousin; Nikolai Scherbak; Michael K. Skinner; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Neurotoxicity; behavior; RNA-Seq; RRBS; TEI; permethrin; PCBs; PBDEs; coumarin 47;

    Sammanfattning : Environmental pollution causes approx. 10% of human diseases, and some develop in the progeny because of parental exposure. Effects passed on to subsequent generations may be a consequence of genetic mutations, or of inherited changes in epigenetic patterns. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Ecology and control of Anopheles mosquitoes and human malaria in Guinea Bissau, West Africa

    Författare :Katinka Pålsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecology; Anopheles; Bed nets; Epidemiology; Malaria control; Natural mosquito repellents; Plasmodium; Ekologi; Terrestrial; freshwater and marine ecology; Terrestisk; limnisk och marin ekologi; Entomology; entomologi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis analyses the relationship between risk of exposure to infective Anophelesmosquitoes and different environmental factors, in particular house construction, presence ofdomestic animals and house location, in coastal Guinea Bissau, West Africa. The potentialeffect of permethrin-impregnated bed nets on mosquito abundance in bed rooms, and on thePlasmodium parasite prevalence in children was also analysed. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Effects of Agriculture on Abundance, Genetic Diversity and Fitness in the Common Frog, Rana temporaria

    Författare :Markus Johansson; Anssi Laurila; Juha Merilä; Craig R. Primmer; Michael W. Bruford; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; agriculture; agrochemicals; amphibians; effective population size; genetic diversity; genetic structure; hierarchical sampling; microsatellites; Rana temporaria; Biologi; Biology; Biologi;

    Sammanfattning : The aims of this thesis were to evaluate the effects of agriculture on amphibians in terms of (i) population genetic consequences of agriculture-induced spatial changes of the landscape and (ii) local adaptation and tolerance to frequently used agrochemicals. The study was performed using the common frog Rana temporaria as a model. LÄS MER
