1. Evaluation and implementation of quality control parameters for genome-wide DNA methylome sequencing
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapAbstract : Epigenomics is the study of modifications to the genetic material without changes to the DNA sequence, one such modification is methylation of nucleotides. DNA methylation is associated with gene regulation and is studied in a variety of fields such as cancer and ageing. READ MORE

2. Exploring Swedish Oat (Avena sativa) Genetic History - from AD 1440 to today
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningAbstract : Oats (Avena sativa) have been one of the most important cereals in Swedish crop history, completely dominating domestic cereal production in the 19th and early 20th centuries. During this time, oats were mainly used as horse feed and since then, production has decreased with decreased use of horses. READ MORE

5. Hierarchical clustering matrix (HCM) method applied to DNA barcode assembly for bacterial chromosomes
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisationAbstract : DNA barcodes carry coarse-grained genetic information of DNA sequences taken from a genome. Potential applications include bacteriology, medical diagnosis and taxonomy. However, the current state-of-the-art tools for extracting DNA molecules from cells provide only fragmented pieces of chromosomal DNA. READ MORE
