  1. 1. A computational model of metapopulation dynamics and organism-mediated nutrient flow

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Amanda Hansson; [2023-08-07]
    Keywords : computational model; population dynamics; metapopulation dynamics; nutrient flow; simulation; spatially explicit; individual-based;

    Abstract : The aim of this project was to assess, using in-silico experiments, how different life history char-acteristics, such as age at maturity and dispersal ability of individuals, influence the dynamics of a metapopulation. To achieve this, a novel model of a spatially explicit metapopulation, with organ-ism-mediated nutrient flow between fragmented habitat patches, was implemented by means of computer simulations.

  3. 2. The evolutionary origins of phagocytosis in microbial populations

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Alfred Leimar; [2022]
    Keywords : Theoretical ecology; phagocytosis; predation; adaptive dynamics;

    Abstract : The emergence of the eukaryotic cell was one of the key events that paved the path to the vast variety of complex life visible all around us. A pivotal event in the process of eukaryogenesis was an endosymbiosis of two prokaryotic cells which in time resulted in the mitochondria. READ MORE

  4. 3. Microbial ecosystem analysis of biochar-enriched soil in Kenya using microfluidic soil models

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Erik Karlsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Soil microbial ecosystem analysis; Microbe abundance; Microbe foraging; Biochar; Agriculture; Microfluidics; In-situ visualization; Kenya; SoilChip; Soil model; Minor Field Study; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Healthy soil is rich in diverse microbial life, and a healthy microbial ecosystem is crucial for any well-functioning agriculture. Soil microbes are essential for organic decomposition and nutrient recycling in the soil, which make nutrients available for agricultural crops. READ MORE

  5. 4. Antimüllerskt hormon hos häst : klinisk relevans och hormonets variation med hästtyp, ålder och säsong

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Anne-Cathrine Jensen; [2020]
    Keywords : Antimüllerskt hormon; AMH; häst; granulosacellstumör; kryptorkism; säsongsvariation; åldersvariation;

    Abstract : Antimüllerskt hormon (AMH) är ett konserverat glykoproteinhormon. Hos hanar produceras det under fosterstadiet i höga koncentrationer då det medverkar till regressionen av de Müllerska gångarna, förstadiet till de honliga könsorganen. READ MORE

  6. 5. From farm to petri dish: cell-based meat’s progress to market

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Företagsekonomiska institutionen
