  2. 1. Hopeful monsters: The role of hybrids in adaptation : The impact of hybridisation and genetic diversity on adaptation to stressful and novel environments

    Author : Ciaran Gilchrist; Rike Stelkens; Christopher Wheat; Linda Laikre; Mathilde Cordellier; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Experimental evolution; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; population genetics; hybridisation; adaptation; aneuploidy; comparative genomics; evolve-and-resequence; de novo mutations; evolutionary parallelism; populationsgenetik; Population Genetics;

    Abstract : Adaptation to novel environments can only occur if natural selection has the raw material to act upon. But small, endangered populations are often genetically depleted, and the acquisition of beneficial de novo mutations often takes too long when population face quick and extreme environmental change.

  4. 2. Next-generation Molecular Systematics and Evolution: insights into Medicago

    Author : Filipe de Sousa; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; phylogeny; incomplete lineage sorting; paralogy; hybridisation; Medicago;

    Abstract : Evolutionary relationships among species have in recent years been inferred using DNA sequences from specific genes and represented by tree diagrams (phylogenies). However, the signal contained in different genes can produce conflicting sets of relationships – i.e., gene tree incongruence. READ MORE

  5. 3. Crossing barriers: Genetic consequences of translocating wild cleaner fish for aquaculture

    Author : Ellika Faust; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; conservation genetics; population genetics; aquaculture escapee; hybridisation; corkwing wrasse; lumpfish; cleaner fish translocation; sea lice; range expansion; fishery management;

    Abstract : Several species of fish show a symbiotic cleaning behaviour, where they assist other species by feeding and removing dead skin or ectoparasites. Some of these cleaner fish species are used as a low-cost parasite control in salmon aquaculture, often considered to be more environmentally friendly than other delousing methods. READ MORE

  6. 4. “Bridal Couples" : On Hybridity in Conceptual Chinese Photography 1995–2009

    Author : Eva Aggeklint; Marja Kaikkonen; Julia F. Andrews; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; China; Reform Period China; Contemporary Chinese Art; Contemporary Chinese Photography; Conceptual Photography; Bridal Photography; Bridal Couples; Art Market; Auction Houses; Third Space; Hybrid; Hybridity; Hybridisation; Interpretation; Asian Languages and Cultures; Asiens språk och kulturer;

    Abstract : Chinese art of the 1990s responded to the many changes in the environment and thereby to changes in personal lives. Many Chinese artists of the time were therefore concerned with their selves and their works reveal explorations of personal identity. READ MORE

  7. 5. Controlled by Knowledge : A Study of two Clinical pathways in Mental Healthcare

    Author : Mona Jerndahl Fineide; Lena Gonäs; Helge Ramsdal; Eva Bejerot; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Organisation theory; scientific bureaucratic medicine; health policy; governance; New Public Management; regulatory tools; control; management; standardisation; rule production; instrumentation; clinical pathways; lean; work; professions; professionals; autonomy; discretion; power; knowledge; legitimacy; evidence based medicine; mental health care; hospital; child and youth psychiatry; psychiatrist; psychologist; jurisdiction; legitimacy; soft bureaucracy; hybridisation; Working Life Science; Arbetsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Standardisation of professional work is a major policy concern to ensure quality and efficiency of services and a number of hospitals are now focusing on the use of clinical pathways as an important tool to standardise their work. This study sheds light on the processes set in motion when notions of standardisation meet local practice. READ MORE
