  1. 1. Investigating fungicide resistance of Alternaria solani, a Solanaceae pathogen, on potato crops in south-eastern Sweden and its relationship with soil

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Protection Biology

    Author : Emma Lefèvre; [2023]
    Keywords : Alternaria solani; fungicide resistance; Fluopyram; mycelial growth; type of soil; soil conditions;

    Abstract : Alternaria solani is a worldwide present fungus that can cause a lot of damage such as early blight in potato crops. Potato can suffer a lot of yield losses because of this pathogen, and the main method used today to fight against it, is the application of fungicides. READ MORE

  3. 2. Fungicide resistance against fluopyram in Alternaria solani

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Protection Biology

    Author : Felicia Ekdahl; [2022]
    Keywords : Fluopyram; Alternaria solani; early blight; potato; Solanum tuberusum;

    Abstract : Early blight in potato production can be devastating and to minimize crop damage the use of fungicides has been the key. New fungicides called the SDHIs have been used against the early blight pathogen, Alternaria Solani in potato fields to reduce yield losses. READ MORE

  4. 3. Biological control and growth promotion in Solanum spp.

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Plant Biology

    Author : Johannes Klint; Niklas Zeiner; [2020]
    Keywords : plant growth promoting rhizobacteria; biological control; Solanum tuberosum; Phytophthora infestans; alternaria solani;

    Abstract : Potato (Solanum tuberosum) is Sweden’s most treated crop in terms of chemical disease control, primarily to prevent potato late blight caused by Phytophthora infestans. Another important disease is potato early blight caused by Alternaria solani. READ MORE

  5. 4. Functional analysis of polyketide synthases in the biocontrol fungus Clonosthachys rosea

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology

    Author : Umma Fatema; [2017]
    Keywords : biocontrol; Clonostachys rosea; gene deletion; polyketide synthase; secondary metabolites;

    Abstract : Clonostachys rosea, a filamentous ascomycete, is a well-known biological control agent (BCA) against a wide range of plant pathogenic fungi. Genome sequencing revealed that C. rosea strain IK726 possess 32 genes encoding for polyketide synthases (PKS), which is significantly higher than the more studied biocontrol fungi Trichoderma.

  6. 5. Svampar associerade med raps : betydelse för uppkomst och grödetablering

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology

    Author : Caroline Dahlberg; [2009]
    Keywords : oljeväxter; grödetablering; patogena svampar;

    Abstract : Oilseed rape is an important crop in Sweden and is grown on about 90000 ha today. The interest in oil seed pro-duction is increasing because of growing demand and high prices for oil seed both in Sweden and Europe. However, an increased intensity in the oil seed production can bring higher risk of yield losses due to fungal diseases. READ MORE
