  2. 6. Microbial mobilization and immobilization of soil nitrogen

    Author : Per Bengtson; MEMEG; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecology; Ekologi; growth rate; microbial activity; respiration; assimilation; immobilization; Nitrogen; mineralization;

    Abstract : Microorganisms in forest ecosystems normally recycle nitrogen (N), such that gaseous losses and leaching are limited. Mobilization of organic N, including microbial N, and immobilization of inorganic N, especially NH4+, are the quantitatively most important N transformation processes. Various factors influence their rates, e.g. READ MORE

  4. 7. The effect of forest nutrients status on ectomycorrhizal growth and community structure in response to minerals

    Author : Christoffer Berner; MEMEG; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Ectomycorrhiza are a symbiosis between trees and soil inhabiting fungi. The fungal hyphae ensheath the fine roots creating a mantle and grow in between root cells to create the Hartig net, where the exchange of carbon and mineral nutrients occurs. The ectomycorrhizal fungus is dependent on the host tree to receive the carbon it needs to grow. READ MORE

  5. 8. Avian MHC : Characterization and expression patterns of classical and non-classical MHC-I genes

    Author : Anna Drews; MEMEG; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MCH class I; Classical genes; Non-classical genes; Expression; Passerine birds;

    Abstract : The function of the vertebrate immune system is to enable recognition and elimination of microorganisms that can cause harm (pathogens). A key component in adaptive immunity is the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) that codes for molecules with antigen presentation function. READ MORE

  6. 9. Effects of nitrogen deposition on the growth, metabolism and activity of ectomycorrhizal fungi

    Author : Magnus Ellström; MEMEG; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nitrogen deposition; Ectomycorrhizal fungi; Symbiosis; SOM modification; Carbon starvation; Metabolism; Nitrogen leakage; IR-spectroscopy; Mesh bags; Microarray; Axenic growth; Transcriptomics.;

    Abstract : Elevated nitrogen (N) deposition is an environmental problem that can affect plants and microorganisms, which are vital for the terrestrial N and carbon (C) cycles. This thesis has investigated the response of ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) to increased N deposition. READ MORE

  7. 10. Genetic Analysis of Cytosolic PGI in Festuca ovina

    Author : Lena Ghatnekar; MEMEG; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Växtgenetik; Plant genetics; pseudogenes; grasses; cytosolic PGI; introgression; duplication; Festuca ovina;

    Abstract : Festuca ovina, sheep's fescue is a widely distributed perennial outbreeder that belongs to the grass family Poaceae and is very common in the northern temperate zone. The genus Festuca s.l. is partitioned into fine-leaved fescues to which F. READ MORE
