    Abstract : Phytopathogens account for a large portion of the yield loss in the world today. Developing sustainable strategies to limit their effect for increasing food safety and security is one of important challenge for agriculture and horticulture production systems. READ MORE

  3. 7. Effects of plant-fungal interactions on volatile emission of Hordeum vulgare and aphid preference

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Author : Bina Johansson; [2022]
    Keywords : volatile organic compounds; chemical communication; Trichoderma atroviride; Fusarium graminearum; Rhopalosiphum padi; biological control;

    Abstract : Barley is one of the most economically important cultivated crops in the world. However, barley is a host for many insect pests and plant pathogenic fungi which is a threat to the production. Rhopalosiphum padi is an economically important insect pest that leads to large economical losses in agricultural crops such as barley. READ MORE

  4. 8. A molecular analysis of the interaction between the biocontrol fungus Clonostachys rosea and the cereal pathogen F. graminearum

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

    Author : Esther Kuper; [2021]
    Keywords : Agrobacterium- mediated transformation; Biocontrol; Clonostachys rosea;

    Abstract : Modern agriculture is increasingly challenged by newly emerging crop diseases- many of them caused by fungal pathogens. At the same time, excessive application of chemical fungicides accelerates the development of resistant pathogen strains and may cause harmful effects on non-target organisms. READ MORE

  5. 9. Interactions between plant pathogens and their implications for crop protection

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

    Author : Ayano Tanaka; [2021]
    Keywords : disease complex; nteraction; antagonism; synergism; Fusarium spp;

    Abstract : One plant may often be infected by more than one pathogen species. It is assumed that species which exploit the same resource have the potential to affect each other. Plant diseases where more than one pathogen is involved in the development of infection are usually termed as ¨disease complex¨. READ MORE
