  1. 1. Cover crops for plant protection : Cover crops for control of root pathogenic Plasmodiophora brassicae and the root parasitic nematodes Pratylenchus penetransand Meloidogyne hapla

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Breeding (from 130101)

    Author : Izabella Lundborg; [2022]
    Keywords : Clubroot disease; plant parasitic nematodes; Lupinus angustifolius; Avena strigosa; Phacelia tanacetifolia; Lolium perenne; Solanum lycopersicum; Brassica napus;

    Abstract : Root pathogens and parasites are an increasing problem in agricultural and horticultural production. The soil borne pathogen Plasmodiophora brassicae is one of the major pathogens in oilseed rape production and the plant parasitic nematodes (PPNs), Pratylenchus penetrans and Meloidogyne hapla infest important crops such as carrot, potato and strawberry.

  3. 2. Using metabolic profiles to screen for novel compounds in deep-sea sponges

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaceutisk biovetenskap

    Author : Samira Hilowle; [2022]
    Keywords : Metabolomics; Deep-sea sponges;

    Abstract : The chemical diversity of the phylum Porifera have provided marine natural products (MNPs) such as alkaloids, terpenoids and peptides with ranging biological activity. Every two days a novel compound deriving from sponges are discovered. READ MORE

  4. 3. Using effect-based methods to evaluate the presence of bioactive compounds in food contact materials made of paper and cardboard

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Mimmi Wänn; [2021]
    Keywords : Food toxicology; food contact materials; cell-based in vitro bioanalytical methods; cytotoxicity; reporter gene assay; bioactivity; bioassays; paper and cardboad;

    Abstract : Food contact materials are materials that are intended to come into contact with food, and we are exposed to different types of chemicals that exist in the packages on a daily basis. In this study, a battery of effect‑based in vitro cellular bioassays was used to evaluate the presence of bioactive compounds in commonly used food contact materials made of paper and cardboard, retrieved from the Swedish market.
