  1. 1. Game of crops : genetic composition and adaptation of seed orchard crops

    Author : Alisa Heuchel; Xiao-Ru Wang; David Hall; Ulfstand Wennström; Jaroslaw Burczyk; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; seed orchards; GBS; linear deployment; tree improvement; genetic diversity; adapation; topgrafting; Scots pine; Norway spruce; improved reforestation material; field performance; flowering stimulation; fertility variation; Genetics; genetik; environmental science; miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : Orchard populations are artificial and intensively managed populations of elite, best-performing trees that are established for mass production of genetically improved seeds. Seed orchards connect cycles of selection, breeding, and testing of plus-trees with the deployment of the improved seeds at the operational plantations. READ MORE

  2. 2. On linear graph invariants related to Ramsey and edge numbers : or how I learned to stop worrying and love the alien invasion

    Author : Oliver Krüger; Jörgen Backelin; Alexander Engström; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ramsey number; edge number; minimal Ramsey graph; independence number; clique number; Turán s theorem; crochet pattern; H13-pattern; linear graph invariant; triangle-free graph; Mathematics; matematik;

    Abstract : In this thesis we study the Ramsey numbers, R(l,k), the edge numbers, e(l,k;n) and graphs that are related to these. The edge number e(l,k;n) may be defined as the least natural number m for which all graphs on n vertices and less than m edges either contains a complete subgraph of size l or an independent set of size k.

  4. 4. Waves of controversy : gene technology in Dagens nyheter 1973-96

    Author : Anna Olofsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Mass media; public debate; agenda setting; content analysis; society and technology; STS; public discourse analysis; gene technology; genetic engineering; biotechnology; scientific controversies; resistance to new technology; s-curve; life-cycle models; Sociology;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the public debate on gene technology, between 1973 and 1996, in one of the agenda-setting media in Sweden, Dagens Nyheter. Gene technology is one of the latest controversial technologies which characterise our present Western society. READ MORE

  5. 5. The colour of climate : A study of raised bogs in south-central Sweden

    Author : Anders Borgmark; Stefan Wastegård; Ann-Marie Robertsson; Bas van Geel; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Holocene; south-central Sweden; peat humification; bog hydrology; climate variation; spectral analysis; Quaternary geology; Kvartärgeologi;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on responses in raised bogs to changes in the effective humidity during the Holocene. Raised bogs are terrestrial deposits that can provide contiguous records of past climate changes. Information on and knowledge about past changes in climate is crucial for our understanding of natural climate variability. READ MORE
