4. 2. Exploring Fennoscandian agricultural history through genetic analysis of aged crop materials

   Author : Maria Lundström; Jenny Hagenblad; Matti W. Leino; Mattias Jakobsson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Crop plants have undergone a multitude of genetic changes during and following their domestication. The spread of agriculture brought the crops to new geographic regions exposing them to new environments and selection pressures along the way. READ MORE

5. 3. Relational Sensitivity in Participatory Design : Thinking and making together through joint inquiry

   Author : Laura Gottlieb; Yvonne Eriksson; Jennie Andersson Schaeffer; Anna-Lena Carlsson; Christina Mörtberg; Mälardalens universitet; []
   Keywords : Innovation and Design; innovation och design;

   Abstract : Participatory design processes can entail involving individuals, groups, and communities in joint inquiry to deliberate on their current situation, imagine alternative futures, and forge possible collaborations. Relational sensitivity – drawing attention to relationships in a given situation – is important when staging (i.e. READ MORE

6. 4. Population History and Non-invasive Monitoring : Use of low copy number DNA in Conservation Genetics

   Author : Øystein Flagstad; Ettore Randi; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; genetic tagging; immigration; loss of genetic variability; non-invasive molecular techniques; population decline; Swayne’s hartebeest; wolf; wolverine; Biologi; Biology; Biologi; ekologisk botanik; Ecological Botany;

   Abstract : Conservation genetics research is increasingly becoming an integrated part of the management of small and endangered populations. In this thesis I developed tools for genetic analysis of low copy number sources of DNA, such as old teeth from museum specimens as well as field-collected faeces and urine. READ MORE

7. 5. Patterns and Processes of Evolution in Sundaland
