  1. 1. Analysis of relatedness and genetic diversity in Swedish sheep breeds using medium density (50K) SNP data

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Author : Krishani Devika Wijesinghe Sinhalage; [2023]
    Keywords : sheep; genetic diversity; population structure; inbreeding; runs of homozygosity; coat colour; MC1R;

    Abstract : The local Swedish sheep breeds belong to a group of sheep breeds known as North European short-tailed sheep breeds. Evaluation of genetic diversity, relatedness, and population structure of local breeds offers crucial metrics to prevent inbreeding depression, genetic erosion, and crossbreeding between locally adapted and exotic sheep breeds since these occurrences can have detrimental effects and ultimately lead to extinction.

  3. 2. Användning av krävande ballastmaterial vid betongtillverkning - En laborativ utvärdering av absorptionshämmande tillsatsmedel för att möjliggöra användning av glimmerrik bergkross och återvunnen betong som ballast

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Byggnadsmaterial

    Author : Anna Hagberg; Andreas Andersson; [2023]
    Keywords : Absorption inhibitor; admixtures; aggregate; biotite; calorimetry; compressive strength; concrete; heat development; mica; recycled concrete; workability; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Detta examensarbete utvärderar ett absorptionshämmande tillsatsmedel för att möjliggöra användningen av krävande ballast vid betongtillverkning. Den huvudsakliga anledningen till att ballasten benämns som krävande är att den har ovanligt hög absorptionsförmåga. READ MORE

  4. 3. Morphological characterization of the muscular ridge in non-crocodilian reptiles

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Wilma Sohlén; [2023]
    Keywords : Adaptation; Anatomy; Function; Haemodynamics; Muscular ridge; Reptiles; Shunting;

    Abstract : The cardiovascular systems in ectothermic reptiles have long been studied and its development represent a transition state between a single- and a double circulation. This literature review focus on the typical-reptilian heart and therefore distinguishes between orders within the class of Reptilia. READ MORE

  5. 4. A recipe for fish and SNPs : Filling the blanks for conservation genomics of Swedish wels catfish (Silurus glanis) populations

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för ekologi och genetik; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Lars Littmann; [2022]
    Keywords : Catfish; Silurus glanis; Genomics; Genetics; Conservation; Mitochondrial; Whole-genome; NGS; Sweden;

    Abstract : Swedish populations of Wels catfish (Silurus glanis) experienced severe declines during the 19th and 20th centuries. The main causes for the decline were loss of suitable spawning habitat and fragmentation of populations. Currently, three native and two reintroduced populations remain in Sweden. READ MORE

  6. 5. Accelerated Carbonation Of Cement Pastes And Mortars

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Pejman Hajibabaei; [2022]
    Keywords : karbonatisering; accelerated carbonation; SCMs; cement paste; carbonation depth;

    Abstract : Concrete structures have the largest surface area of all human made structures. Large surface area makes concrete capable to absorb CO2 from environment during its lifetime. It is estimated that concrete during its lifetime can absorb about 15-20% of CO2 which had produced in cement production. READ MORE
