  1. 1. Pseudomonas aeruginosa gene expression analysis using pangenome and PAO1 reference genomes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i bioinformatik

    Author : Yi Su; [2023]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Development in sequencing technologies has made the analyses of genetic material much more accessible. Processing sequenced data for an accurate analysis comes with its challenges, especially with the studies in microbial in clinical in vivo samples where difficulties in the collection of these samples for sequencing could lower the quality and contamination from the human host which might affect the accuracy of downstream analysis.

  2. 2. Exploration of the hereditary cause of sex ratio distortion in horses

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

    Author : Susan Ott; [2021]
    Keywords : Sex ratio; horse; selfish genetic elements; meiotic drive; Icelandic horse; Standardbred horse; Coldblooded trotters; heritability; Trivers-Willard hypothesis; pedigree data;

    Abstract : Even sex ratios are seen as evolutionarily stable and are maintained by a selection against a skewed sex ratio. However, sometimes sex ratios at birth are skewed towards one sex. Reasons for this phenomenon are often unknown. READ MORE

  3. 3. Characterization of infectious laryngotracheitis virus from outbreaks in Swedish chicken hobby flocks

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Liv Jonare; [2020]
    Keywords : backyard flocks; chickens; infectious laryngotracheitis; virus; vaccine; coinfections; latency; sequencing; complete genome sequencing; PCR; non-commercial poultry;

    Abstract : Infectious laryngotracheitis (ILT) is a respiratory tract infection of gallinaceous birds, which is caused by Gallid herpes virus 1 (GaHV-1), also called infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV). In its most virulent form it can cause acute respiratory symptoms such as marked dyspnoea, gasping, expectoration of bloody mucus, high mortality (up to 70%) and production losses, such as decreased growth and egg production.

  4. 4. Sequencing the genomic DNA of Anodonta anatina using Oxford nanopore technology

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Saad Shikh Khaled; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Freshwater mussels are members of phylum Mollusca, which live in freshwater habitats such as lakes and rivers. Freshwater mussels are essential ecologically in the aquatic ecosystems, they have a high capacity for water purification and play a significant role in calcium recycling. READ MORE

  5. 5. Molecular detection and characterization of begomoviruses from Burkina Faso and Nicaragua

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Plant Biology

    Author : Suneel Sekhar Rachapudi; [2019]
    Keywords : geminivirus; begomovirus; Calopogonium mosaic virus; Bean golden mosaic virus; Phaseolus vulgaris; polymerase chain reaction; rolling circle amplification;

    Abstract : Agriculture plays a major role in the economy of countries in Africa and America. Viruses have emerged as major plant pathogens during the last few decades on agriculturally important field crop plants. The genus Begomovirus belongs to the family Geminiviridae, which is the largest family of plant-infecting viruses. READ MORE
