  1. 1. Biowastes for Plant Production : a guide to plant biostimulants

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Author : Toolie-Mina Anderback; [2021]
    Keywords : biological waste; by-products; organic inputs; fish protein hydrolysate; vermicompost; seaweed extract; fish waste; macro algae;

    Abstract : Biostimulants are a suggested tool to achieve sustainable plant production. These are products sourced from biological processes or extracted from biological material, which induces physiological responses in plants. READ MORE

  2. 2. Analysis of organic compounds in the rhizosphere soil of Cyperus rotundus using LC-MS

    Author : Daniel Ruotsalainen; [2018]
    Keywords : LC-MS; Method development; Rhizosphere soil; Cyperus rotundus; SPE; LC-MS; Methodutveckling; Rhizosphere jord; Cyperus rotundus; SPE;

    Abstract : Den presenterade studien hade som syfte att utveckla en extraktions-, provpreparerings- och analysmetod för jorden, i vilken gräset Cyperus rotundus växer, i ett försök att identifiera möjliga äggläggningsattraherande ämnen för myggan Anopheles gambiae. Högupplösande vätskekromatografi med hydrofob stationär fas (RP-HPLC, en. READ MORE

  3. 3. Rhizosphere Priming and Methane Oxidation in Agricultural Soil - Effect of Land Use on Atmospheric Concentrations of CO2 and CH4 and Climate Change

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Miljövetenskaplig utbildning

    Author : Esben Øster Mortensen; [2017]
    Keywords : The Priming Effect; Rhizosphere; Methane Oxidation; Land Use; Agriculture; Soil Ecology; Microorganisms; Climate Change; Atmospheric concentrations of CO2 and CH4.; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Biology and Life Sciences; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

    Abstract : Rhizosphere interactions have high influence on the fluxes of carbon to and from terrestrial ecosystems. One very important part of the rhizosphere interactions is the rhizosphere priming effect (RPE) which is defined as changes in the decomposition rate of soil organic matter (SOM) in response to labile organic carbon input from plant roots.

  4. 4. Svampar associerade med raps : betydelse för uppkomst och grödetablering

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

    Author : Caroline Dahlberg; [2009]
    Keywords : oljeväxter; grödetablering; patogena svampar;

    Abstract : Oilseed rape is an important crop in Sweden and is grown on about 90000 ha today. The interest in oil seed pro-duction is increasing because of growing demand and high prices for oil seed both in Sweden and Europe. However, an increased intensity in the oil seed production can bring higher risk of yield losses due to fungal diseases. READ MORE

  5. 5. Root development of Lolium perenne in diesel contaminated soil

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil Sciences

    Author : Karin Pettersson; [2006]
    Keywords : root development; diesel; phytoremediation; rhizobox; lolium perenne; contaminated soil;

    Abstract : When studying phytoremediation, one of the most important aspects is root development, with its associated rhizosphere that improves hydrocarbon degradation. Plant performance of Lolium Perenne grown in diesel contaminated soil was studied in a rhizobox experiment where root development could be visually monitored. READ MORE
