1. Endophytic fungi in living trees - are communities affected more by tree species, tree age, or geographic origin?
University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskapAbstract : Endophytic fungi are ubiquitous in living vascular plants and have been identified in most terrestrial environments. The endophytes may have various ecological roles such as commensals, symbionts and latent invaders. READ MORE

2. Fungal endophyte communities in declining and vital oak (Quercus robur L.) trees
University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research CentreAbstract : The role of microbiome in tree health is receiving increasing interest in forest pathology research. This study focuses on the abundance and diversity of fungal endophytes in pedunculate oak (Quercus robur L.) differentiating in vitality. READ MORE

3. Värmebehandling av ekollon (Quercus robur L) och dess påverkan på grobarhet och vitalitet hos unga plantor
University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research CentreAbstract : Regeneration of pedunculate oak, Quercus robur, is hampered due to uneven supplies of acorns, infectious fungi and a generally low germination percentage of acorns. Aerated steam treatment was tested on acorns collected in southeast Sweden in order to determine if this method improves germination. READ MORE

4. Population biology and ecology in the rare and endangered Hapalopilus croceus.
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningAbstract : Landscape management has altered the population dynamics of many species residing in old growth ecosystems. As a result, fragmentations in residual old oak habitats in Sweden have led to the decline of endangered and long-lived polypores including the bright orange Hapalopilus croceus. READ MORE

5. Variation in fungal endophyte communities of pedunculate oak (Quercus robus L.) : spatial, temporal and environmental aspects
University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research CentreAbstract : Fungal endophytes are a taxonomically and ecologically heterogeneous group of ubiquitous intercellular fungi that live part of their life within the tissues of the plants without causing apparent harm to the host. They may contribute to the stress tolerance and resistance of the plants, and endophytes may also be involved in decomposition processes. READ MORE
