Whole mitochondrial genome sequences have the potential to clarify avian haemosporidian phylogenies and evolution. In this study, we sequenced mitochondrial genomes from isolates of 26 genetic lineages of avian haemosporidian parasites of the genus Haemoproteus (subgenus Parahaemoproteus) with a nested long-range PCR protocol and next-generation sequencing. We identified more mixed infections than

In many attitude theories, it is commonly assumed that what we believe in is partly based on our own past actions, and that these actions shape our present opinion towards an issue. This suggests that how one remembers and represents past deci-sions could have an instigating role in establishing future at-titudes. However, the way attitudes change over time has gen-erally been explained by either

The following study conducts a critical discourse analysis on H&M’s marketing. The purpose is to analyze how H&M uses political positioning as a marketing tool. The study uses theory concerning communication in companies. How a company brand can benefit from communicating intangible values and transparency. It also uses theory rooted in commodity fetischism and feminist theory regarding pe

Hydrogen is a very alluring source of energy and new sources of hydrogen production via sustainable and clean sources is of high priority. Dark fermentation has the potential to be this new sustainable clean source of hydrogen but requires profound optimization. Caldicellulosiruptor is a genus of thermophilic bacteria that is capable of producing hydrogen near the stoichiometric limits of 4 mol /

This paper presents an analysis of two different policy-induced shocks to the Swedish housing market. An abolishment of the interest deduction and a reintroduced property tax. The paper closely follows the methodology presented by Bergman and Sørensen (2016). This is a model that can be used to analyze the behavior of the estimated fundamental house prices and is suitable for various policy simula

In practice, Virtual Commissioning is a technical method within the au- tomation field where you can create a simulated twin factory to a real physical factory containing functional machines. The purpose of Virtual Commissioning is to move a great portion of the commissioning tasks to an earlier state in the project. To make this possible a simulation model of a system is created within a simulati

Vi står kanske inför en av vår tids största samhällsutmaningar då forskare menar att vi är på väg att möta den sjätte massutrotningen. Kontinuerligt rapporteras det om hur djurbestånd dör ut och om diverse klimatkatastrofer vilket till stor del beror på mänsklig aktivitet. Skolan är en av samhällets främsta institutioner som socialiserar barn och unga och spelar en viktig roll i en eventuell framt

Title: Adaptation of shipment consolidation and distribution network design to omni-channel retailing Authors: Johan Deniz, Martin Månsson Supervisor: Joakim Kembro, Department of Industrial Management and Logistics, Faculty of Engineering, Lund University Problem description: Global retailers tend to have complex distribution networks. A part of the complexity stems from trade-offs in deciding

In this study I analysed reduplicative ablaut ideophones in English for their morphosyntactical properties, as ideophones in other languages have been found to have several marked characteristics in this respect. Informed by the typology of ideophones in other languages, my research questions were whether the reduplicatives would appear integrated into or outside of sentences, if they would fill f

Colombia has suffered from an internal armed conflict with different armed groups for more than five decades. This conflict has resulted in more than eight million victims of whom the majority have had to leave their home and become internally displaced persons (IDPs). Currently, Colombia is the country with the most IDPs in the world. On 24th of November 2016, a Peace Agreement was signed between

A theoretical study is reported of metallic hydrogen in the molecular phase of Cmca-4 and the atomic phase of I4_1/amd at high pressure about 500 GPa. Using density functional theory (DFT) and more specifically the PBE exchange correlation functional as approximation scheme, the crystal structure of metallic hydrogen has been investigated. This to determine its metallic properties and see if the c

Maf transcription factors have pivotal roles in regulating beta cell function and development, and loss of MafA expression has been associated in inducing pro-inflammatory gene signature. This study assessed if the loss of MafA transcription factor expression contributes to the development of islet inflammation. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that 8 months old MafA deficient pancreata (MafA-/
