1. 1. Microbial strains from compost originated from circulated side streams : impact on root growth and root hairs

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

   Author : Benjamin Pettersson; [2023]
   Keywords : Spent Mushroom Compost; Circulated side streams; Botrytis cinerea; Circular Bioeconomy; Soil health;

   Abstract : Spent mushroom compost, apple waste and other organic waste materials are of great potential to improve soil health, water holding capacity and to supress plant pathogens. Today compost is used in apple orchards as an additional fertilizer or soil amendment. READ MORE

3. 2. Gene expression and mechanical properties regulating two phenotypes of horse’s skin appendages: hoof strength and hair structure

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

   Author : Asmaa Alameddine; [2022]
   Keywords : horse; hair; hoof quality; RNA-seq; gene expression; mechanical properties; barefoot racing;

   Abstract : Background: The hair follicle and hoof are two parts of the horse’s skin appendages that emerge from the dermis and epidermis. Different phenotypes characterize these two integument structures and determine their quality. In this project, we were interested in studying two phenotypes, the strength of the hoof and two types of horse hairs. READ MORE

4. 3. Vad gör en växt torktålig? : fysiologiska och morfologiska egenskaper i blad och rötter anpassade för en urban ståndort

   Author : Arvid Lizell; [2021]
   Keywords : torktålighet; vedartat; strategier; turgor loss point;

   Abstract : The aim of this literature study is to examine and collect available information about physiological and morphological drought strategies and traits in woody species. Furthermore, the intention is to, based on collected information, discuss how this knowledge can be applied to the use of woody plant species in urban environments. READ MORE

5. 4. Real-time Fur Deformations forFilm-Quality Characters

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Medie- och Informationsteknik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolan

   Author : Rebecca Cedermalm; [2019]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : In this thesis, the goal was to get a production ready fur groom to deform with the underlying subdivided and animated surface in real-time. The thesis investigates how to import a fur groom into Unity, how to render it, how to deform it and how to remove the most obvious of artefacts. READ MORE

6. 5. Impact of plant ecotype on Bacillus-mediated growth promotion : extending beyond the standard model plant

   University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Plant Biology

   Author : Staffan Matzén; [2018]
   Keywords : bacillus; growth promotion; root exudates; volatiles;

   Abstract : This study investigated how bacterial treatment modulates plant growth. Bacillus amyloliquefaciens UCMB5113 was used for treatment of several different natural accessions (ecotypes) as well as mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana. Treatment effect on plant root architecture was studied in particular. READ MORE
