1. Phenotypic Processes Triggered by Biological Invasions
Abstract : Individuals within a single population can vary widely in their phenotype e.g. in their body shape. These differences are an important source of biodiversity and they can precede evolutionary divergence within a population. READ MORE

2. Characterisation of social behaviour in red junglefowl and White leghorn laying hens : phenotypic and genetic studies
Abstract : The objective of this thesis was, by using two model strains of chicken, red junglefowl and White Leghorn layer, to study differences in social behaviour of the species that could be derived from domestication and production related selection processes. The social phenotype characterisation was done to be able to further study the association of the social differences to specific production related traits as well as to certain genome areas in intercross and backcross lines generated from these two parental populations.

3. Antibiotic susceptibility and resistance in Neisseria meningitidis : phenotypic and genotypic characteristics
Abstract : Neisseria meningitidis, also known as the meningococcus, is a globally spread obligate human bacterium causing meningitis and/or septicaemia. It is responsible for epidemics in both developed and developing countries. READ MORE

4. Phenotypic plasticity and local adaptation in tadpoles
Abstract : Amphibian larvae are plastic in many traits. Can plasticity buffer population divergence, so that local adaptation is more common in non-plastic traits? I argue that this may be the case for adaptive plastic responses. READ MORE
