1. Finding fitness : empirical and theoretical explorations of inferring fitness effects from population-level SNP data
Sammanfattning : The distribution of fitness effects (DFE) describes the likelihood that a new mutation has a specific effect on the fitness of an individual in a given population. The shape of the DFE is a result of several factors such as population size, mating system and selective environment, and can in turn influence the evolutionary potential of a species. LÄS MER
2. Mating system evolution and self-incompatibility in the wild plant species Brassica cretica
Sammanfattning : Compared to animals like ourselves, plants have a very flexible sexual life. Most plants are, for example, hermaphrodites with the potential capacity for reproduction by self-fertilization (or selfing). LÄS MER
3. Morphometric and molecular variation in the Nordic dogroses (Rosa Sect. Caninae, Rosaceae)
Sammanfattning : In the present thesis, I investigate the hierarchical structure of morphometric and molecular diversity within and between the Nordic dogroses (Rosa Sect. Caninae, Rosaceae). I also investigate patterns of geographic differentiation and taxonomic relationships within the group. LÄS MER
4. Demography and Polyploidy in Capsella
Sammanfattning : Studies of demography and population structure give insight into important evolutionary processes such as speciation and diversification. In the present work I perform such studies in the genus Capsella, which has three species: C. grandiflora, an outcrossing diploid, C. rubella a selfing diploid, and C. LÄS MER
5. Genomic and phenotypic consequences of allopolyploidization in Capsella
Sammanfattning : Allopolyploidization, the combination of whole-genome duplication (WGD) and interspecific hybridization, is a frequent and influential event in plant evolution. Allopolyploidization potentially affects both adaptation and diversification, yet the understanding of the consequences of allopolyploidy has been obscured by several issues. LÄS MER
