    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Plant Biology

    Author : Alexander Lilliehöök; [2022]
    Keywords : Biostimulants; root development; barley; root length; root fresh weight; root dry weight; grain yield;

    Abstract : The use of biostimulants has increased greatly in the last 20 years. In year 2012 over 6 million hectares in Europe was treated with biostimulants and the market is expected to almost double in the coming 5 years compared to present levels. READ MORE

  3. 2. Leachate-Based Biotic Ligand Model for Soil : Ecotoxicological Risk Assessment of Copper for Invertebrates, Plants, and Soil Microbial Processes

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Tove Florén; [2021]
    Keywords : Tomato shoot; Barley root; Glucose induced respiration; Nitrification; Earthworm; Springtail; EC10; SSD; Regression analysis; pH dependency; Bioavailability;

    Abstract : Environmental pollution of heavy metals has become an increasing problem. Environmental risk assessments can be conducted to investigate and determine the potential risk of polluted terrestrial environments. Traditionally, risk assessments are based on total soil metal concentrations on a dry weight basis. READ MORE

  4. 3. Screening of early root growth characteristics in seedlings of Nordic spring barley : utilization of hydroponics and GWAS for identification of QTLs and candidate genes for root traits

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Plant Breeding

    Author : Karl-Johan Fabo; [2021]
    Keywords : spring barley; plant breeding; root growth; early vigor; seminor roots; GWAS; QTL; quantitative traits; quantitative genetics; marker-assisted breeding; hydroponics;

    Abstract : In the Nordic countries, the cultivation of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) has a long history, and as one of the major cereals in the world, barley is of global importance for food security. The world population is growing, which naturally will increase demands for agricultural outputs. READ MORE

  5. 4. Combining biocontrol fungus Clonostachys rosea with chemical fungicides – for integrated management of Fusarium foot/root rot

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

    Author : Sebastian Bengtsson; [2020]
    Keywords : Biocontrol agent; Clonostachys rosea; Fusarium culmorum; Fusarium graminearum; prothioconazole; Proline; Fusarium foot root rot; ; Integrated pest management;

    Abstract : Fungal plant diseases have typically been controlled by the application of chemical pesticides. However, excessive use of chemical pesticides may produce undesirable side effects including fungicides tolerance in pathogens and environmental problems, if not handled correct. READ MORE

  6. 5. Time series analysis for spring barley phenology monitoring using Sentinel 2 – A case study of Southern-central Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Pavlos Aslanis; [2020]
    Keywords : spring barley; crop phenology; crop growth stages; TIMESAT; double logistic; threshold optimization; Sentinel 2; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Monitoring crop phenology at parcel scale aligns with the concept of precision agriculture (PA) and can provide invaluable information to agronomic management systems. Satellite time series data are commonly deployed for detecting crop growth stages, while the recent advancements in remote sensing (RS) technologies such as the launch of Sentinel 2 (S2) are providing unprecedented opportunities for crop monitoring.
