Characterization of barley ert-c mutants

Karakterisering av ert-c mutanter i sädesslaget korn För att säkra vår mattillgång behöver vi bättre grödor. I modern tid har det blivit vanligare med kraftiga regn kombinerat med starka vindar. Detta ökar risken att grödor trycks ner på market, vilket minskar skörden och påverkar skördens kvalitet. Kortare växter som ert-c mutanter är mer tåliga mot sådant väder och i mitt arbete hoppades jag kuThe barley erectoides (ert) mutants are characterized by an erect growth habit, a short and compact spike and often a short culm length. The ert-c mutant group consists of 40 allelic mutants and is thus one of the largest groups. The aim of this study was to identify the ert-c gene. The genomes of eight ert-c mutants have been sequenced and a set of candidate genes were identified. In the present

The impact of non-Saccharomyces inclusion during alcoholic fermentation on rosé wine colour density and stability

Rosé wine popularity is mostly due to its pink colour which results from grape pigments. Varying from a pale salmon to a deeper pink colour, its stability and intensity are not as good as the those of red wines, it’s therefore crucial to improve them. Yeasts, responsible for alcoholic fermentation, have been shown to influence wine colour, in particular when nonSaccharomyces (NS) yeasts are inocul

Improvements in brain imaging using spectral computed tomography: Development and evaluation of novel techniques

Background and aimStroke is a life-threatening condition requiring timely and accurate treatment. Computed tomography (CT) is widely used to detect stroke due to its accessibility, speed and diagnostic value. Spectral CT, the latest advancement in CT technology, utilizes multiple energy levels to improve tissue contrast and material differentiation. This thesis aims to evaluate how spectral recons

Development of a humanized mouse model for the study of primary myelofibrosis

Primary myelofibrosis (PMF) is the most severe form of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), for which allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is the only curative option. However, only a small portion of patients are eligible for it, and even if they are, there is no guarantee of success due to the many comorbidities associated with the disease (older age, splenomegaly, anemia), risk of g

Changes in health care utilization following the Patient Choice Reform of Swedish primary health care : An equity perspective

Vårdvalet blev obligatorisk inom den svenska primärvården år 2010, vilket utökade patienternas valmöjligheter och gjorde det möjligt för privata vårdgivare att etablera sig med offentlig finansiering. Även om vårdvalsreformens påverkan på primärvårdens utformning är allmänt erkänd, är resultaten gällande dess effekter på jämlikhet i vårdutnyttjande delvis motsägelsefulla.Det överordnade syftet med

Long-Term Systolic Blood Pressure Time in Target Range and Cardiovascular Disease in Individuals With Hypertension

BACKGROUND: Previous post hoc analyses of clinical trials have suggested that a higher percentage of systolic blood pressure time in target range (SBP-TTR) was associated with a decreased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, there is limited evidence from large prospective cohort studies on the relationship between long-term SBP-TTR and the risk of CVD.OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this stu

The importance of Haemophilus influenzae in community-acquired pneumonia : an emerging pathogen in the elderly regardless of comorbidities compared to Streptococcus pneumoniae

BACKGROUND: Haemophilus influenzae community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is common, and it is equally common to Streptococcus pneumoniae in some settings. The purpose of this study was to provide additional data on patients affected by H. influenzae CAP and their outcomes.METHODS: Streptococcus pneumoniae-caused CAP (111 cases) was compared to CAP with H. influenzae (53 cases). Patients were adults (

Profiling the nasopharyngeal Microbiome in patients with community-acquired pneumonia caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae : diagnostic challenges and ecological insights

Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a significant health threat for adults. Although conjugate vaccines have reduced pneumococcal CAP incidence in children, Streptococcus pneumoniae-related CAP remains prevalent among older adults. The nasopharynx acts as a reservoir for S. pneumoniae, yet the interplay between this pathogen and the nasopharyngeal microbiome during and after pneumonia remains po

Understanding the Structure of High-Multiplicity Jets with PYTHIA

Materien som vi består av och kommer i kontakt med är uppbyggd av atomer med kärnor bestående av protoner och neutroner. De är exempel på hadroner, partiklar sammansatta av de fundamentala partiklarna kvarkar och gluoner. Dessa interagerar via den starka kraften, vilken likt gravitationen, elektromagnetismen och den svaga kraften är en fundamental kraft som styr utformningen av vårt universum. UndStrong force dynamics in the non-perturbative regime remains a poorly understood aspect of quantum chromodynamics. In collisions of heavy ions, the near-side ridge and enhanced elliptic flow are widely regarded as signatures of the collective motion of deconfined partons in a thermalized medium. On the other hand, no corresponding explanation has been found for the appearance of these signatures i

Trade Wars and Supply Chain Shifts: How Do Tariffs Reshape Global Trade Flows?

The U.S.-China trade war, which began in 2018, remains a critical issue in global trade, with Trump’s return to office in January 2025 heightening tensions as he threatens to impose further tariffs on, and beyond, China. This thesis investigates both the direct effects of U.S. tariffs on trade between the U.S. and China and the indirect effects on Vietnam. The primary focus is to examine Vietnam&#
