Avel för bättre kalvningsegenskaper hos mjölkkor

Kalvningssvårigheter och dödföddhet är problem som finns hos svenska mjölkkor och som ökat under de senaste åren, speciellt bland förstagångskalvare. Problemen försämrar kornas välfärd och kostar pengar för bonden. Flera studier har gjorts för att kartlägga så kallade quantitative trait loci (QTL) kopplade till kalvningsegenskaper och många kromosomregioner har hittats som kan innehålla gener som påverkar dessa egenskaper. En viss oenighet finns i resultaten från studierna, men flera studier har hittat QTL kopplat till kalvningsegenskaper på kromosom 4, 6, 7, 10 och 18. Sverige har inkluderat kalvningssvårigheter i det traditionella avelsprogrammet sedan 1995 men inga större genetiska framsteg har gjorts.

Kan en avreglerad sjukförsäkringsmarknad ge oss den sjukförsäkring politiker vill att vi ska ha?

Hög sjukfrånvaro är en ständigt aktuell fråga i Sverige. Förutom problemet med hög sjukfrånvaro i absoluta tal finns i Sverige även stora regionala skillnader i sjukfrånvaro som inte kan förklaras med skillnader i hälsostatus mellan olika regioner. För att sjukförsäkringen ska få mer karaktär av försäkring med mindre godtycklighet i ersättningsbedömning krävs en tydligare koppling mellan risken som ska försäkras bort och försäkringens användande. Frågan som behandlas i denna uppsats är huruvida sjukförsäkringens uppgift att hantera risk för inkomstbortfall på grund av ohälsa samt att omfördela resurser mellan högrisk ? och lågriskindivider kan utföras mer effektivt och försäkringsmässigt på en konkurrensmarknad än med en enhetlig sjukförsäkring.

?R KUSTN?RA ALK?RR I BOHUSL?N ETT ?BLUE CARBON? HABITAT?

In coastal wetlands carbon/organic matter can be stored for long periods of time thanks to, among other things, the presence of water which slows down the decomposition. Because of this, restauration and management of such habitats have the potential to decrease the emission of greenhouse gasses and help mitigate climate. Internationally these environments are called ?blue carbon? ecosystems. In Sweden, alder (Alnus glutinosa and Alnus incanata) covered wetlands along the coast is a nature type that potentially could function as a ?blue carbon? habitat.

Drevjaktens sekundära effekter på dovhinden (Dama dama)

I största delen av Europa är det jakt utförd av människan som är den huvudsakliga dödsorsaken för hjortdjur som till exempel dovhjort, kronhjort och älg. Men jakt kan även ha andra negativa effekter på djur än de dödliga. Forskning har visat att jakt kan påverka hjortdjurs beteende och hur de använder sitt hemområde där man bland annat sett att hjortar ökar storleken på sitt hemområde, vistas mer i skogsområden än öppna områden samt lämnar och undviker områden där det förekommer mänsklig aktivitet. Varför detta kan vara negativt för hjortar är för att det är viktigt att de har god kunskap om området de vistas i då det gör det möjligt för dem att hitta bra föda samt skydd vid faror. Detta har de i sina normala hemområden och om de tvingas lämna dessa kan det leda till negativa konsekvenser. I detta arbete, som genomfördes genom ett samarbete med Grimsö forskningsstation, Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet, undersöktes huruvida dovhinden (Dama dama) påverkas av jakt.
