  1. 1. Relatedness and diversity in Swedish local chicken breeds using mitochondrial DNA D-loop sequences and SNP data

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

    Author : Esther Taiwo Afolabi; [2023]
    Keywords : chicken; genetic diversity; mtDNA d-loop; SNP; Swedish local chicken breeds;

    Abstract : Genetic diversity is the variation in genetic information carried by individuals within a species or population. This variability plays a crucial role in enabling species to adapt and survive in changing environments and is essential for evolutionary processes. READ MORE

    Abstract : The urge to combat climate change and the rapid degradation of agroecosystems puts high pressure on the development of novel tools to make an applied and theoretical change in the world. There is a vision on sustainability through Agenda 2030 which aligns with FAOs: the 10 elements of agroecology. READ MORE

  6. 5. Genomic comparison of shiga toxin-producing E. coli O157:H7 from ruminants and humans

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Linnéa Good; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) are zoonotic pathogens that frequently colonise ruminants without them showing any symptoms. In humans, STEC cause diarrhoeal disease and occasionally leads to the life-threatening disease haemolytic-uraemic syndrome (HUS). READ MORE
