  1. 1. Towards renewable chemicals production in cyanobacteria

    Author : Kateryna Kukil; Pia Lindberg; Yu Jianping; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Synechocystis PCC 6803; metabolic engineering; succinate; phenylpropanoids; laboratory evolution; Chemistry with specialization in Molecular Biomimetics; Kemi med inriktning mot molekylär biomimetik;

    Abstract : The intensive fossil fuel combustion by humanity resulted in the increase of atmospheric CO2 concentration creating the greenhouse effect, which in turn causes severe environmental problems. Thus, humanity should find solutions to decrease dependency on fossil hydrocarbons in order to lower CO2 emission into the atmosphere. READ MORE

  2. 2. Genetic, morphological and chemical variation in the genus Harpagophytum

    Author : Mbaki Muzila; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Harpagophytum procumbens is a valuable medicinal plant but mistakes with plant identification at harvesting, and wilful adulteration using the presumably less efficient H. zeyheri are suggested. A multidisciplinary study with plant material from Botswana was conducted. READ MORE

  3. 3. Identification of molecular markers associated with fungal resistance in Norway spruce and common ash

    Author : Rajiv Chaudhary; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Trees are giants of the forests, possessing nutrient-rich tissues that make them natural targets for pathogens. In Europe, the fungal pathogens Heterobasidion annosum s.l. and Hymenoscyphus fraxineus are associated with Norway spruce and common ash, respectively. READ MORE
