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. 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

4. 3. Parentage Assignment using genetic markers in the common carp (Cyprinus carpio)

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

   Author : Sven Kristian Feddersen; [2023]
   Keywords : single nucleotide polymorphism; Parentage Assignment; aquaculture; genetic markers;

   Abstract : This study investigated the effect of varying single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) marker density, error threshold selection, and different SNP selection strategies on parentage assignment accuracy in carp populations. Using a marker set of 15,615 SNPs, we found a positive correlation between the quantity of SNP markers and the accuracy of parentage assignments, consistent with existing literature. READ MORE

5. 4. Automating Deployments of Trusted Execution Environments

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Gidófalvy Gordon Zsolt; [2023]
   Keywords : hardware TEE; Intel SGX; AMD SEV; SEV-SNP; automation; configuration management; Ansible; scripting; OS dependency management; automation tooling; system tooling; system administration; hardware TEE; Intel SGX; AMD SEV; SEV-SNP; automatisering; konfigurationshantering; Ansible; skript; hantering av OS-beroenden; verktyg för automatisering; systemverktyg; systemverktyg; systemadministration; hardware TEE; Intel SGX; AMD SEV; SEV-SNP; automatisering; konfigurationshantering; Ansible; skript; hantering av OS-beroenden; verktyg för automatisering; systemverktyg; systemverktyg; systemadministration;

   Abstract : Hardware-based TEEs (Trusted Execution Environments) are gaining adoption and becoming more prevalent in today’s computing landscape. In a cloud-native world, where everything runs on ephemeral compute, having the luxury of experts setting up computation environments before running a workload is no longer a possibility. READ MORE

6. 5. 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
