  3. 7. Lepidium cake as a feed stuff to pigs

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Author : Hagos Arefaine; [2016]
    Keywords : Lepidium cake; digestibility; growing pigs; feeding behaviour; glucosinolate; non-starch polysaccharides; blood profiles; sinalbin;

    Abstract : The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of different levels of lepidium cake (LC) on palatability, coefficient of total tract digestibility (CTTAD), blood parameters and feeding behaviour in growing pigs. A total of 8 female growing pigs ((Land race x Yorkshire) × Hampshire) with an average initial body weight of 26.5±2. READ MORE

  5. 9. Plant defensive mechanisms against insect pests

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Biology and Forest Genetics (until 131231)

    Author : Joel Markgren; [2012]
    Keywords : Arabidopsis thaliana ; ethylene; feeding experiments; glucosinolate-myrosinase ; jasmonic acid; Plutella xylostella; priming; salicylic acid; Spodoptera littoralis ; trichomes;

    Abstract : This study has focused on testing the following two hypotheses:• Pest resistant plants have higher levels and/or several different kinds of secondary metabolites. • Induced defensive systems in resistant plants are activated more rapidly than those of susceptible plants. READ MORE

  6. 10. Effect of Bacillus mediated priming on different natural genetic variants of Arabidopsis thaliana

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Biology and Forest Genetics (until 131231)

    Author : Staffan Matzén; [2012]
    Keywords : priming of defense; generalist herbivore; Spodoptera littoralis; Arabidopsis thaliana; glucosinolate; feeding experiment; pest management;

    Abstract : In two feeding experiments Bacillus induced priming of plant defense was tested for its effect against the generalist insect pest Spodoptera littoralis. The main hypothesis for the study was that Bacillus induced priming would enable the plant Arabidopsis thaliana to defend itself better against this insect herbivore since this priming seems to involve jasmonic acid, known to be important for plant defense to insects.
