  1. 21. Generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) lines deficient for genes associated with neurodevelopmental diseases using CRISPR/Cas9 technology

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Claudia De Guidi; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can self-renew and differentiate into many other cell types. IPSCs are derived from somatic cells, and upon reprogramming, they share an expression profile similar to embryonic stem cells (ESCs). READ MORE

  3. 22. Testing the potential to evaluate vegetation optical depth with ecosystem water dynamics in a temperate forest

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Ainahu Abdul Hamid; [2021]
    Keywords : Physical geography; Ecosystem analysis; Vegetation optical depth; Temperate Forest; Climate; LPJ-GUESS; Evapotranspiration; Leaf water potential; Isohydricity; Hydraulic failure; Carbon starvation; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Warming trends have been associated with drought which induces and heightens agents and factors that cause tree mortality. Remotely sensed observations are increasingly being used in vegetation studies and are obtained from Earth observation satellites. READ MORE

  4. 23. Variations in the CCR5-gene and its effect on CAE, in goat

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

    Author : Hanna Tiilikainen; [2021]
    Keywords : CCR5; caprine arthritis encephalitis; goat; SRLV; small ruminant lentiviruses;

    Abstract : Caprine Arthritis Encephalitis (CAE) is a disease negatively affecting goats, around the world. A mutation on the CCR5-gene has showed an increase in viral load. CAE is a lentivirus that affects the monocytes/macrophages. It is a disease similar to HIV in humans and the animal can be a carrier for months to years before symptoms start to show. READ MORE

  5. 24. Optimisation of autoencoders for prediction of SNPs determining phenotypes in wheat

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Karthik Nair; [2021]
    Keywords : Deep Learning; Machine Learning; Convolutional Neural Networks; Convolutional Variational Autoencoders; Autoencoders; SNP-Phenotype relationships; Genetics; Agricultural Bioinformatics; Neural Networks; Unsupervised Learning;

    Abstract : The increase in demand for food has resulted in increased demand for tools that help streamline plant breeding process in order to create new varieties of crops. Identifying the underlying genetic mechanism of favourable characteristics is essential in order to make the best breeding decisions. READ MORE

  6. 25. Advanced Detection Methods of Genomic Barcodes for Genotyping Escherichia coli Libraries

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för cell- och molekylärbiologi; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Nicole Eger; [2021]
    Keywords : Genotyping; Genomic barcodes; LAMP; PNA; RCA; FISH;

    Abstract : Pooled cell strain libraries are a powerful tool allowing to investigate the influence of genetic modifications on phenotypes in high throughput single-cell assays. To link the genotype to phenotype in each cell of the library, unique 20 base pairs (bp) long barcodes are used to allow in situ genotyping after phenotyping via fluorescence microscopy. READ MORE
