  1. 21. The relative contribution of CNVs and SNPs to local adaptation in Norway spruce (Picea abies)

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Växtekologi och evolution; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Yuxuan Niu; [2022]
    Keywords : CNVs; SNPs; Norway spruce; local adaptation;

    Abstract : In the current environment of severe climate change, studying the adaptability of Norway spruce to the environment, that is, local adaptation is of great significance for helping to protect forest tree species and genetic breeding. As a structural variation, copy number variations (CNVs) have been proved to play an important role in shaping population structure and local adaptation in marine species, going beyond traditional studies focusing only on SNPs.

  4. 23. Lärkens framtid i svensk förädlingsindustri : råvaruförsörjning och efterfrågan

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Economics

    Author : Albin Lindquist; [2022]
    Keywords : hybridlärk; klimatförändringar; sibirisk lärk; skogsbruk;

    Abstract : Val av trädslag vid skogsföryngring kan ha en stor inverkan på skogsägandets lönsamhet då olika trädslag har olika egenskaper och preferenser gällande exempelvis jordmån och klimat. Felaktiga val av trädarter kan också leda till skador på grund av storm, brand och biotiska skadegörare. READ MORE

  5. 24. Spruce associated Porodaedalea species distribution in Sweden

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Monica Guilera Recoder; [2022]
    Keywords : Fungi; Genetics; Porodaedalea;

    Abstract : Wood-inhabiting fungi have very important roles in the ecosystem in the degradation of dead wood by acting respectively as parasites and saprotrophs in boreal forests. Porodaedalea chrysoloma is a wood-decay parasite poroid fungi that is considered a key species in the old growth boreal forests. Due to forestry its habitat is declining. READ MORE

  6. 25. Towards climate optimised riparian buffer zones in boreal forests

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Alice Falk; [2022]
    Keywords : Forestry; Biogeochemical hotspots; Carbon dioxide; Methane;

    Abstract : Boreal forests have the potential to mitigate the increased concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the atmosphere. However, forestry alters the soil biogeochemical processes which can cause an increase in GHG emissions from nearby water bodies, soil and vegetation. READ MORE
