  2. 11. Phasing single DNA molecules with barcode linked sequencing

    Author : David Redin; Afshin Ahmadian; Ulf Gyllensten; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Single molecule sequencing; DNA barcoding; whole genome haplotyping; linked-read sequencing; phasing; de novo genome assembly.; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Abstract : Elucidation of our genetic constituents has in the past decade predominately taken the form of short-read DNA sequencing. Revolutionary technology developments have enabled vast amounts of biological information to be obtained, but from a medical standpoint it has yet to live up to the promise of associating individual genotypes to phenotypic states of wide-spread clinical relevance.

  4. 12. Markets, mixtures and molecular methods : Investigating medicinal plant and edible orchid diversity in Tanzania and Zambia

    Author : Sarina Veldman; Hugo J. de Boer; Tinde R. van Andel; Barbara Gravendeel; Joseph N. Otieno; Julie Hawkins; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DNA barcoding; Africa; Species delimitation; Orchids; Medicinal plants;

    Abstract : Medicinal plants are an important source of primary healthcare for many people in Tanzania. These medicinal plants are harvested from the wild, and increasing commercial trade poses a serious threat to local plant populations. Currently it is unknown which species are traded and in what amounts. READ MORE

  5. 13. Exploring the species boundaries in terrestrial clitellates (Annelida: Clitellata)

    Author : Svante Martinsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Oligochaeta; species delimitation; Clitellata; Annelida; DNA-barcoding; cryptic species; Enchytraeidae; Lumbricidae; Naididae;

    Abstract : The biological diversity in the soil is much higher than most people can imagine, and a very important group of animals living there are earthworms and other clitellate worms. It has been found that several clitellate morphospecies are in fact complexes of so called cryptic species, and the number of species in this group may be much higher than previously believed.

  6. 14. 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

  7. 15. 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
