  1. 11. 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.

  3. 12. Combined chemical and biological control of Fusarium graminearum: co-application of antagonistic bacteria removed from winter wheat leaves

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Crop Production Ecology

    Author : Milena Schulz; [2015]
    Keywords : Fusarium; wheat; prothioconazole; integrated pest management; antagonists;

    Abstract : In the future Sweden needs to comply with EU directives which require the stronger implementation of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) which includes the reduction of the amount of pesticide applied in order to control plant pathogens such as Fusarium graminearum in wheat. The idea in this study was to compensate the reduced chemical control from the fungicide by the co-application of antagonistic bacteria which were isolated from winter wheat leaves. READ MORE

  4. 13. Biologisk bekämpning av Fusarium graminearum

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

    Author : Karolina Jörgensen; [2014]
    Keywords : biologisk bekämpning; Fusarium graminearum; Clonostachys rosea; Pseudomonas chlororaphis;

    Abstract : Fusarium graminearum causes reduction in both yield and quality in cereal grain worldwide. One of the diseases it can cause is Fusarium Head Blight (FHB). Both sexually and asexually produced spores can infect living plants. Asexual conidia are produced in the mycelium while sexual ascospores form in asci in perithecia on debris. READ MORE

  5. 14. Interaction between mycotoxin producing fusarium species in different oat cultivars

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Crop Production Ecology

    Author : Tania Tajrin; [2013]
    Keywords : Fusarium langsethiae; Fusarium graminearum; Fusarium head blight; FHB; HT-2 T-2 toxin; Deoxynivalenol; DON;

    Abstract : Oat is the third most important cereal crop in Sweden and Fusarium head blight (FHB) disease makes the oat grain incompatible for animal and human consumption by producing secondary metabolites called mycotoxins.T-2, HT-2 and deoxynivalenol (DON) are the most common mycotoxins in oats produced by Fusarium spp. READ MORE

  6. 15. Deoxynivalenol prediction in oats

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Crop Production Ecology

    Author : Joel Markgren; [2013]
    Keywords : Deoxynivalenol; F.culmorum; F.graminearum; Leaf wetness; Fusarium head blight; Modeling; oat; phenology;

    Abstract : In recent years there have been problems with unacceptable high levels of the mycotoxin contam-inant Deoxynivalenol (DON) in oats in Sweden and Norway. This is due to infections of the fun-gal pathogens Fusamium graminearum and Fusarium culmorum. READ MORE
