Overview

L. Fredrik Sundström is affiliated with Uppsala University in Sweden. Their research spans multiple aspects of environmental science and biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology. The scientist's work is distributed across both main fields and several subfields related to ecology, physiology, nature and landscape conservation, genetics, and molecular biology.

The scholarly output of Sundström includes publications in reputable venues such as Scientific Reports and the Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences. Among recent papers are:

  • Adjustments of cardiac mitochondrial phenotype in a warmer thermal habitat is associated with oxidative stress in European perch, Perca fluviatilis (2020) published in Scientific Reports
  • Assessing wild genetic background and parental effects on size of growth hormone transgenic coho salmon (2021) published in Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences

The research topics covered in Sundström's publications primarily concentrate on physiological and biochemical adaptations, adipose tissue and metabolism, fish ecology and management studies, animal genetics and reproduction, as well as CRISPR and genetic engineering.

Frequent co-authors collaborating with Sundström include:

  • Nicolas Pichaud
  • Andreas Ekström
  • Sophie Breton
  • Piotr K. Rowiński
  • Pierre Blier

The scientist's work involves exploring how environmental factors affect physiological traits, such as the study of cardiac mitochondrial changes in fish adapting to warmer habitats. The genetic background and parental influences on growth characteristics have also been examined, particularly in relation to genetically modified organisms like growth hormone transgenic coho salmon.

Sundström's interdisciplinary focus on environmental and molecular biology aspects reflects an integrated approach to understanding organismal adaptation and genetic variation. Their research contributes to understanding complex biological processes in aquatic species within the broader context of ecological and conservation sciences.
