1. 1. Characterization of Giant Proteins from Lactobacillus kunkeei

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

   Author : Martin Schol; [2020]
   Keywords : structural biology; protein expression; protein purification; Lactobacillus kunkeei; L. kunkeei; small angle X-ray scattering; SAXS; circular dichroism; CD; honey bee; honey crop; extracellular protein;

   Abstract : Lactobacillus kunkeei is the most common and dominant bacterium in the honey stomach of honeybees. L. kunkeei has been isolated from honeybees all over the world. Genome sequencing has identified 5 genes for exceptionally large proteins in the genome of L. READ MORE

   Keywords : structural biology; protein expression; Lactobacillus kunkeei; L. kunkeei; small angle X-ray scattering; SAXS; circular dichroism; CD; thermofluor; nano differential scanning fluorimetry; nanoDSF; honey bee; honey crop; extracellular protein;

   Abstract : Lactobacillus kunkeei is one of the most abundant bacteria within the honey crop of the honey bee. Genome sequencing of L. kunkeei isolated from honey bees all over the world showed several genes unique for L. kunkeei. READ MORE

4. 3. Importance of bumble bee community evenness for crop pollination : a simulation analysis of Swedish red clover seed production

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Ecology

   Author : Vivek Babu; [2018]
   Keywords : bumble bee; Bombus; community; evenness; biodiversity-ecosystem function; diversity-stability; diversity-productivity; overyielding; productivity; stability; biodiversity; selection effect; species asynchrony; portfolio effect;

   Abstract : The red clover seed production systems are dependent on pollinators for increase in red clover seed yield and its stability. When compared to domesticated honey bees, the wild bumble bees are highly efficient in pollinating the red clover crop due to its relatively longer tongue length. Longer dependence on single pollinator species i.e. READ MORE

5. 4. Apiculture and Bee Health in Central Sweden

   University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

   Author : Olof Larne; [2014]
   Keywords : honey bee; immune defense; lactic acid bacteria; Varroa mite;

   Abstract : Pollination necessary for the agricultural crop production affects the functions of the ecosystems on earth. In landscapes where wild pollinators are decreasing, honey bees promote the maintenance of plant species, therefore honey bee losses are of great concern. READ MORE

6. 5. Vedrötor i stadsträd : biologi, detektionsmetoder och förebyggande åtgärder

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Crop Science

   Author : Tove Hultberg; [2006]
   Keywords : rötor; stadsträd; svampar; beskärning;

   Abstract : Urban trees have very little in common with trees on natural sites, such as forests or pastures. Trees in urban environments are often planted in packed soil and in small volumes. This can lead to decreased availability of water and oxygen, as well as deteriorated ability for the soil to store nutritional elements. READ MORE
