  1. 1. Spray Induced Gene Silencing in Phytophthora infestans : investigating exogenous dsRNA application for the control of potato late blight

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Breeding (from 130101)

    Author : Poorva Sundararajan; [2024]
    Keywords : Phytophthora infestans; RNAi; potato late blight; gene silencing; SIGS;

    Abstract : Phytophthora infestans is an oomycete pathogen and the causal agent of late blight disease in potato and tomato. Even today, it causes massive loss to crop and economy worldwide. Current disease control strategies include breeding for resistance and extensive fungicide spray. READ MORE

  3. 2. Fungicide tolerance in Phytophthora infestans

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology

    Author : Nadja Kvick Nastaj; [2023]
    Keywords : Phytophthora infestans; Fungicide tolerance; Fungicide dose;

    Abstract : For the last 180 years, the pathogen P infestans, responsible for the late blight disease, has been a severe problem for farmers. Despite the large efforts and financial investments done in the management of the disease, 15-30% of the potato production is lost to this disease globally each year. READ MORE

  4. 3. Predicting the outcome of IVF treatments using forward selection regression and linear discriminant analysis

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Agnes Ekman; Linnéa Fahlberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : As more and more In Vitro Fertilizaiton (IVF) treatments are performed each year, there is a need to better predict the outcomes of different stages of the treatment and hence get a better understanding of which hormonal and physical parameters affect the treatment outcome and in what way. In this study, the effect of interaction between baseline AMH (anti-mullerian hormone) and DFI (DNA fragmentation index) on the chance of obtaining at least one good quality embryo was investigated, but no significance was found.

  5. 4. Protoplast isolation and transformation in sweetpotato

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master)

    Author : Jakob Steiner; [2022]
    Keywords : Protoplast; Sweetpotato; Isolation; Transformation; Regeneration; Callus; Propagation; In-vitro; Solanales; Celluase; Cell; Plant; Leaf; Petiole; Biotechnology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Med målet att utvärdera en mindre restriktiv teknik för genmodifiering i sötpotatis (Ipomoea batatas), både gällande ekonomiska begränsningar såväl som det tid och energi bemödande som ett sådant projekt oundvikligen påbrår, har vi arbetat flitigt med att etablera optimerade parameters för protoplast isolation och fortsättningsvis också utforskat lovande protokoll för transformation och regeneration av dessa protoplaster, för att slutligen framställa nya genotyper. Således har en extensiv litteraturundersökning av tidigare publicerade protokoll, varav explantor från sötpotatis men också relaterade arter inom Solanales ordningen har diskuterats, utfärdades varefter datan analyserades via diverse avancerade statistiska modeller.

  6. 5. Characterization of the role of RbfA and KsgA in ribosome function

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Carina Kvernes Macpherson; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Ribosome biogenesis is the maturation and accurate assembly of ribosomal RNA and proteins to form functional ribosomes competent to enter the translation cycle, facilitated by the action of ribosome biogenesis factors. RbfA and KsgA are two factors involved in late stages of the 30S subunit biogenesis, yet before translation initiation. READ MORE
