2. 21. Evolution of MHC Genes and MHC Gene Expression

   Author : Karin Berggren Bremdal; Hans Ellegren; Jennifer Seddon; Philip Hedrick; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; major histocompatibilty complex; dog leukocyte antigen; balancing selection; linkage disequilibrium; promoter; diabetes mellitus; Canis familiaris; Canis lupus; Erinaceus europaeus; Erinaceus concolor; Genetics; Genetik; Biology with specialization in Evolutionary Genetics; Biologi med inriktning mot evolutionär genetik;

   Abstract : Polymorphism in coding regions and regions controlling gene expression is the major determinant of adaptive differences in natural populations. Genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) possess a high level of genetic variation, which is maintained by selection over long coalescence times. READ MORE

4. 22. Competition in caddis larvae

   Author : Göran Englund; S. Kohler; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Agrypnia pagetana; Arctopsyche ladogensis; emigration; fighting behaviour; habitat selection; Hydropsyche siltalai; Hydropsychidae; immigration; predation; resource competition; sequential assessment game;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with behavioural strategies used by caddis larvae in pairwise contests and when selecting microhabitats. Effects of caddis larvae on survival and habitat selection of other insect taxa have also been studied. READ MORE

5. 23. The evolutionary ecology of niche separation : Studies on the sympatric butterflies Leptidea sinapis and Leptidea reali

   Author : Magne Friberg; Wiklund Christer; John N. Thompson; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lepidoptera; ecological character displacement; reproductive isolation; species discrimination; habitat; host plant; life history; sexual selection; female choice; Biology; Biologi; zoologisk ekologi; Animal Ecology;

   Abstract : Studies of ecology and evolution have become largely integrated, and increasing attention is paid to the role of ecology for speciation and post speciation divergence. In this thesis I have applied an in-depth approach studying the ecology of a butterfly species pair; the morphologically virtually identical sister-species, the Wood white (Leptidea sinapis) and Reál’s wood white (Leptidea reali).

6. 24. Gallery Experience : Viewers, Screens and the Space In-Between in Contemporary Installation Art

   Author : Olivia Eriksson; Malin Wahlberg; Anu Koivunen; Ilona Hongisto; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; gallery film; film installation; artists film; archival art; film experience; film phenomenology; embodied experience; relational aesthetics; participation; site specificity; Olafur Eliasson; Fiona Tan; Akram Zaatari; Richard Mosse; Jesper Just; filmvetenskap; Cinema Studies;

   Abstract : This dissertation explores gallery experience as an embodied and site-specific occurrence. Using an interdisciplinary approach that bridges art historical research with film theoretical perspectives, it offers contextualized, in-depth analyses of a limited number of contemporary installation works exhibited in Scandinavia during 2014–2016.

7. 25. Engineering of small IgG binding domains for antibody labelling and purification

   Author : Sara Kanje; Sophia Hober; Cecília Roque; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antibody; labelling; purification; Protein G; Protein A; protein engineering; protein design; combinatorial selection; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

   Abstract : In protein engineering, rational design and selection from combinatorial libraries are methods used to develop proteins with new or improved features. A very important protein for the biological sciences is the antibody that is used as a detecting agent in numerous laboratory assays. READ MORE
