1. The descent of damselflies and variation in relation to sex
Sammanfattning : Sexual conflict over mating shapes the interactions between males and females in many animals and is also responsible for dramatic adaptations in both sexes. In some species of pond damselflies (Odonata:Coeangrionidae), sexual conflict maintains discrete female-limited colour morphs over multiple generations and within populations. LÄS MER
2. Female choice, voltinism and ecological pleiotropy - causes and consequences of the species divergence between Leptidea sinapis and L.reali
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
3. Advancing Metabolic Engineering through Combination of Systems Biology and Adaptive Evolution
Sammanfattning : Understanding evolutionary strategies of microorganisms may provide opportunities foradvanced strain development with the aim to produce valuable bio-products from renewablebiomass resources. Through evolutionary processes, microorganisms can attain new traitsassociated with genetic changes that may be useful for the construction of improved strains. LÄS MER
4. Genetic association analysis of overlapping biological pathways in cardiovascular and Alzheimer disease
Sammanfattning : To gain insight into the importance of the genome for diseases, sequencing and genotyping efforts aim to identify the consequences of genetic variation on both a functional and population level. The task involves the fine-resolution mapping of biologically significant genes and regions discerned by linkage analysis. LÄS MER
5. Fibrinogen and susceptibility to myocardial infarction : role of gene-gene and gene-environment interactions
Sammanfattning : Fibrinogen, the precursor of fibrin, is a glycoprotein synthesized in the liver and maintained in plasma at concentrations normally ranging between 2-4 g/L. The fibrinogen molecule consists of two sets of three non-identical polypeptide chains, which are encoded by the fibrinogen gamma (FGG), fibrinogen alpha (FGA) and fibrinogen beta (FGB) genes clustered on chromosome 4.
