    Abstract : This thesis is about new and improved computational methods to analyze complex biological data produced by advanced biotechnologies. Such data is not only very large but it also is characterized by very high numbers of features. READ MORE

  4. 4. Effects of Post-Glacial Range Expansions and Population Bottlenecks on Species Richness

    Author : Anders Ödeen; Godfrey Hewitt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Peripatric speciation; bottlenecks; mating asymmetries; Kaneshiro model; Quaternary ice-ages; phylogeny; Motacilla; Motacilla flava; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; Animal Ecology; zooekologi;

    Abstract : This thesis relates modern speciation theory to the effects of sudden changes in the range and size of populations. Special reference is made to the climatic oscillations during the Quaternary ice ages. READ MORE

  5. 5. Methods development for metaproteomics-guided bioprospecting of novel enzymes
