  2. 11. Fungal taxonomy and systematics in the digital era, with an outlook on the cantharelloid clade (Basidiomycota)

    Author : R. Henrik Nilsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cantharelloid clade; ectomycorrhiza; Agaricomycetes; phyloinformatics; barcoding;

    Abstract : Fungi form a large and ubiquitous group of organisms where species identification and delimitation on morphological grounds often fall short. DNA sequences have proved an invaluable information source for these pursuits and are now routinely used in most mycological laboratories. READ MORE

  4. 12. Systematics of Grania (Clitellata: Enchytraeidae), an interstitial annelid taxon

    Author : Pierre De Wit; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Clitellata; Oligochaeta; Enchytraeidae; Grania; interstitial habitat; systematics; phylogeny; DNA barcoding; cryptic species;

    Abstract : In between the grains of sand on the ocean floor, there exists a world which few people are aware of. Representatives of almost all animal phyla can be found here. READ MORE

  5. 13. Desert Plants and Deserted Islands : Systematics and Ethnobotany in Caryophyllaceae

    Author : Anneleen Kool; Mats Thulin; Gudrun Kadereit; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; BEAST; Corrigiola; DNA barcoding; Morocco; Pollichia; Polycarpon; Polycarpaea; RAxML; Sanctambrosia; Spergula; Spergularia; Sphaerocoma;

    Abstract : Background. Caryophyllaceae is a large and cosmopolitic flowering plant family, however the systematics of many of its basal groups has been unclear, due to a lack of unambiguous morphology. Some members of Caryophyllaceae are used medicinally, e.g. READ MORE

  6. 14. Next generation molecular diagnostics using ultrasensitive sequencing

    Author : Stefan Filges; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Liquid biopsy; cell-free DNA; circulating tumor DNA; molecular diagnostics; next-generation sequencing; unique molecular identifiers; melanoma;

    Abstract : Massively parallel sequencing enables the exploration of the genetic heterogeneity within microbial, viral and tumor cell populations. Detecting circulating tumor DNA in blood and other body fluids has the potential to revolutionize molecular diagnostics. READ MORE

  7. 15. Advanced molecular tools for diagnostic analyses of RNA and antibodies in situ and in solution

    Author : Mengqi Wang; Ulf Landegren; Anders Ståhlberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Homogenous serological assay; PCR-based antibody detection; Proximity extension assay; SARS-CoV-2 antibody; Extracellular vesicles; Proximity barcoding assay; in situ superRCA; mutant transcript;

    Abstract : Advanced molecular diagnostics uses in vitro biological assays to detect nucleic acids or proteins even in low concentrations across samples, allowing for the identification of biomarkers, monitoring the course of the disease over time, and selection of appropriate therapy. In this thesis, I focus on development and early applications of several molecular tools of expected value in research, and eventually also clinically. READ MORE
