1. 1. Identifying Genetic Causes of Hybrid Necrosis in Arrabidopsis lyrata

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

   Author : Carlos Valbuena-Gonzalo; [2019]
   Keywords : ACD6; deleterious gene interactions; DM9; dwarfism; microsatellites;

   Abstract : Deleterious gene interactions due to accumulation of individual genetic variations between different lineages are a cause of population diversification by creating reproductive barriers that ultimately lead to differentiation of species. One type of deleterious interactions is called “hybrid necrosis”, in which epistatic interactions between some plant immunity genes (usually very variable) cause autoimmunities that produce a necrotic and dwarf phenotype.

3. 2. The Importance of Trait Mediated Indirect Interactions in Marine Ecosystems

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

   Author : Carlos Valbuena-Gonzalo; [2019]
   Keywords : TMII; BMII; behaviour; predation; non-comsuptive effect;

   Abstract : The importance of Trait Mediated Indirect Interactions (TMII) is increasingly being recognized. TMII are interactions between two species via a change in trait (behavioural, morphological, but not numerical) over a third one, which together cause ecological dynamics. READ MORE
