  1. 1. Relatedness and diversity in Swedish local chicken breeds using mitochondrial DNA D-loop sequences and SNP data

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

    Author : Esther Taiwo Afolabi; [2023]
    Keywords : chicken; genetic diversity; mtDNA d-loop; SNP; Swedish local chicken breeds;

    Abstract : Genetic diversity is the variation in genetic information carried by individuals within a species or population. This variability plays a crucial role in enabling species to adapt and survive in changing environments and is essential for evolutionary processes. READ MORE

  3. 2. Sex-associated genomic variation in two ecotypes of Littorina saxatilis on the Swedish west coast

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för marina vetenskaper

    Author : Amin Ghane; [2022-09-26]
    Keywords : Littorina saxatilis; Sex chromosomes; Sex determination systems; Sex-associated genomic region;

    Abstract : Sex, one of the most conspicuous characteristics of living organisms, has always been fascinating for biologists. The diversity of sex goes much beyond a simple distinction between males and females. Many organisms have more than two mating entities, and many species show some degree of hermaphroditism, at least in part of their life cycle. READ MORE

  4. 3. Inavelsgrad i stängda stamböcker : en high density SNP analys av fem svenska fårraser
