  1. 1. Impact of nitrogen availability and nitrogen structural composition on fungal enzymatic activity and growth : how nutrient availability governs response and development of three saprotrophic Basidiomycetes

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Bella Strid; [2024]
    Keywords : nitrogen; tannins; condensed tannins; MnP; manganese peroxidase; peptidase; saprotrophic basidiomycetes;

    Abstract : Fungi excrete a wide variety of extracellular enzymes to scavenge for nutrients, such as the often scarce yet essential nutrient nitrogen. All fungi produce highly specialized hydrolytic enzymes, e.g. peptidases, that depolymerize organic molecules. READ MORE

  3. 2. Fungal Effects on Tree Growth in a Primary Succession

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : August Hedberg; Julian Säflund; [2023]
    Keywords : primary succession; succession; ectomycorrhiza; saprotroph; tree growth; Pinus sylvestris; soil fungi;

    Abstract : In the Boreal zone, ectomycorrhiza is the most common mycorrhiza found among trees and helps with nitrogen and nutrient uptake. Most research on mycorrhiza, its effect, and community development are done on secondary succession (succession in an ecosystem after a disturbance) such as after a clearcut. READ MORE

  4. 3. The effect of heat and UVC treatments on seed germination and seed-borne fungi of Pinus sylvestris, Pinus contorta and Pseudotsuga menziesii used in Swedish nurseries

    University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Author : Wiktoria Breza; [2023]
    Keywords : seed-borne pathogens; artificial regeneration; conifers; thermotherapy;

    Abstract : Pathogen free seeds are critical to produce healthy plants for forest regeneration. However, recent studies have shown that tree seed carry a high diversity of fungi including known and unknown pathogens. READ MORE

  5. 4. How low levels of glucose and tryptophan may signal changes in development and symbiotic potential of ectomycorrhizal fungus Laccaria bicolor

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysiologisk botanik

    Author : Alexandra Goetsch; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Symbiosis between tree species and ectomycorrhizal fungi is a fundamental relationship that promotes the overall health of boreal and temperate forests. Nutrient exchange between the two organisms is mutualistic in nature however establishment of this relationship is still not fully understood. READ MORE

  6. 5. Recirkulering av restprodukter och gynnande av arbuskulär mykorrhiza : två möjliga faktorer i strävan mot ett hållbart fosfornyttjande?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Author : Karl-Johan Fabo; [2018]
    Keywords : mykorrhiza; arbuskulär mykorrhiza; fosfor; fosforbrist; växtnäring; kretsloppsprodukter; restprodukter; tungmetaller; organiska föroreningar;

    Abstract : Låg förekomst av växttillgänglig fosfor är en begränsande faktor för grödors tillväxt på många odlingsmarker. Under det senaste århundrandet har odlare i allt högre utsträckning kommit att använda mineralgödsel för att kunna erhålla tillräckligt stora skördar. READ MORE
