  1. 1. Drought resistance of Ectomycorrhizal fungi in the Suillus genus

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

    Author : Patricia Salén; [2024]
    Keywords : Ectomycorrhiza; drought; Suillus;

    Abstract : Rising instances of drought are causing more tree seedling fatalities post-nursery outplanting. In the face of climate change, fostering resilient forestry practices is imperative for preserving the health and functionality of our forests. READ MORE

  3. 2. 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

  4. 3. Detection of root borne pathogen causing pea root rot by using minion sequencing

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Aderemi Olubode; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is the most cultivated pulse in the temperate zone, economically important with high nutritional value (high protein content of 20-30%) and relatively low cost. Root rot is its predominant disease, it is referred to as root rot complex because it involves many pathogens. READ MORE

  5. 4. The diversity of fungi in coniferous forests and mixed forests

    University essay from Karlstads universitet

    Author : Ida Asplund; [2023]
    Keywords : Forest type; coniferous forest; mixed forest; fungi; fungal diversity; mycorrhiza; saprotrothic fungi; parasites; parasitic fungi; Skogstyp; barrskog; blandskog; svampar; svampdiversitet; svampmångfald; mykorrhiza; saprotrofiska svampar; parasiter; parasitiska svampar;

    Abstract : The fungal domain has one of the highest biodiversities among eukaryotes and species within the domain fill important ecological roles, such as mutualistic mycorrhiza, decomposers, parasites and pathogens. The development of forest ecosystems and their related processes has not only been linked to fungal diversity but the composition and abundance of fungi benefits the abundance and diversity of other species as well.

  6. 5. Detection of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in oilseed rape using Oxford Nanopore sequencing and qPCR

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Ana Guadalupe Herrera Hernandez; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a notorious phytopathogenic fungus and is the causal agent of the disease Sclerotinia stem rot (SSR) of rapeseed (Brassica napus). SSR is one of the main diseases affecting the yield and oil quality of rapeseed crops worldwide. READ MORE
