  1. 1. Evaluation of bee-vectored Aureobasidium pullulans for biocontrol of grey mould in strawberry

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Protection Biology

    Author : Matilda Jützeler; [2021]
    Keywords : Aureobasidium pullulans; biocontrol; Bombus terrestris; Botrytis cinerea; entomovectoring; fungal disease; strawberry;

    Abstract : The fungal pathogen Botrytis cinerea causes grey mould in strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa) inflicting great yield loss and significant economic loss. To date, spraying with chemical fungicides is the primary management practice to control this disease. READ MORE

  3. 2. Biopreservation effects with Wickerhamomyces anomalus after 2 months moist airtight storage of sorghum

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Microbiology

    Author : Louise Nybogård; [2016]
    Keywords : wickerhamomyces anomalus; sorghum; storage; biocontrol; biopreservation; food loss;

    Abstract : Today one third of all produced food is thrown away and one reason for this is microbial spoilage. Hunger and malnutrition in Africa could be reduced if the food loss is reduced. Wickerhamomyces anomalus is a possible biocontrol agent in food science that has shown antifungal and antibacterial effects on, for example, stored barley. READ MORE

  4. 3. Biocontrol activity of Meyerozyma guilliermondii against mould growth and a study of local post-harvest systems for maize in Cameroon

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Microbiology

    Author : Sofia Ny; [2011]
    Keywords : Cameroon; Post-Harvest loss; Biocontrol storage; Local Post-Harves systems;

    Abstract : Post-harvest loss is a major problem for farmers in sub-Saharan Africa. Substantial amountsof cereal grain are lost each year due to factors such as exposure to rain, extreme drought,physical damage and invasion of microorganisms. This decreases the availability of food/feedwhich in turn increases prices and the consumption of unsafe food. READ MORE

  6. 5. Hansenula anomala versus Meyerozyma guilliermondii in inhibition of Enterobacteriaceae and evaluation of maize storages in Cameroon

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Microbiology

    Author : Oleana Hedman; [2011]
    Keywords : Hansenula anomala; Meyerozyma guilliermondii; Enterobacteriaceae; biocontrol; Cameroon;

    Abstract : In sub-Saharan Africa post-harvest losses constitute a major problem. In order to preserve food and feed in a safe and sustainable way new methods need to be investigated and introduced. One system to preserve grain in a secure and energy saving way is by using a biocontrol organism. READ MORE
