  2. 1. Quantitative magnetic resonance in diffuse liver and neurological disease

    Author : Olof Dahlqvist Leinhard; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Mapping--methods; Choline--analysis; Liver diseases--diagnosis; Magnetic resonance imaging--methods; Magnetic resonance spectroscopy--methods; Multiple sclerosis--diagnosis; Multiple sclerosis--metabolism; Nerve fibers; myelinated--metabolism; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Magnetic resonance (MR) has become one of the most important diagnostic tools in modern medicine. It provides superior soft tissue contrast compared to other imaging modalities, it is extremely flexible as it can be used to image all parts of the body, and it is considered to be safe for patients.

  4. 2. Numerical methods for mapping of multiple QTL

    Author : Kajsa Ljungberg; Sverker Holmgren; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Beräkningsvetenskap; Scientific Computing;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns numerical methods for mapping of multiple quantitative trait loci, QTL. Interactions between multiple genetic loci influencing important traits, such as growth rate in farm animals and predisposition to cancer in humans, make it necessary to search for several QTL simultaneously.

  5. 3. Biotope and biodiversity mapping in forest and urban green space : methodological review and developments

    Author : Tian Gao; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Forests play an important role in providing ecosystem services that support the ecological integrity of an area and also supply social benefits for humans. Many of the essential ecological and social benefits derived from forest are underpinned by its biodiversity. READ MORE

  6. 4. Dissecting the genetics of athletic performance and conformation traits in horses

    Author : Maria Rosengren; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The overall aims of this thesis were to investigate the genetics of athletic performance and the level of inbreeding in Coldblooded trotters, as well as the genetics of conformation traits in Icelandic horses. In paper I, genomic-based inbreeding coefficients in Coldblooded trotters were estimated and compared with pedigree-based coefficients. READ MORE

  7. 5. DNA G-quadruplex structures in the mammalian genome : dissecting genome-wide mechanisms of formation and turnover of DNA G-quadruplexes

    Author : Jing Lyu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Since the beginning of 20th century, when the G-tetrad was first discovered, scientists have been seeking to understand the role of G4 quadruplex structures (G4s) in replication, DNA damage, telomere integrity and the regulation of gene expression. However, it is likely that the field has just scratched the tip of the iceberg when it comes to assessing and interpreting the function of individual G4s, forming in a specific locus, in the complex context of chromatin.
