1. 16. Biological control of verticillium stem striping disease on oilseed rape : fungi as friends and foes

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

   Author : André Åbonde; [2023]
   Keywords : Biological control; Oilseed rape; Clonostachys rosea; Verticillium longisporum; Verticllium stem striping disease;

   Abstract : The cultivation of oilseed rape faces challenges caused by pests and pathogens, and soil-borne pathogens such as Plasmodiaphora brassicae (clubroot) are among the main causes of disease. Verticillium longisporum is another soil-borne pathogen, which causes the verticillium stem striping disease in Brassica plants, including oilseed rape. READ MORE

3. 17. Växtnäringens betydelse i förebyggandet av svampsjukdomar

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

   Author : Julia Eriksson; [2023]
   Keywords : Fungicider; gödning; gödslingsstrategi; IPM; växtskydd;

   Abstract : Svampsjukdomar kan orsaka stora problem och skördeförluster inom växtodlingen. Därför används fungicider för att bekämpa svamparna och skydda grödan. Fungicider kan dock vara skadliga för andra organismer och därmed störa ekosystem och den biologiska mångfalden. READ MORE

4. 18. Functional Characterisation of Effectors from Biotrophic and Necrotrophic Wheat Pathogens in Heterologous Expression Systems

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

   Author : Mark Melchior; [2023]
   Keywords : wheat; Blumeria graminis; Parastagonospora nodorum; effectors;

   Abstract : Effector proteins play an important role in the interactions between fungal pathogens and their host plant. Recognition of effectors can lead to localised cell death in plants. The necrotrophic fungus Parastagonospora nodorum utilises this mechanism to induce cell death in wheat and cause Stagonospora nodorum blotch (SNB). READ MORE

5. 19. Improving The Accuracy Of Plant Leaf Disease Detection And Classification In Images Of Plant Leaves: : By Exploring Various Techniques with the MobileNetV2 Model

   University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för datavetenskap

   Author : Veera Venkata Sai Kashyap Kaligotla; Susanthika Sadhu; [2023]
   Keywords : Additional layers; data augmentations; learning rate adjustment; MobileNetV2 model; plant leaf disease detection.;

   Abstract : In the most recent years, many deep learning models have been used to identify and classify diseases of plant leaves by inputting plant leaf images as input to the model. However, there is still a gap in research on how to improve the accuracy of the deep learning models of plant leaf diseases. READ MORE

6. 20. Fungicide tolerance in Phytophthora infestans

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

   Author : Nadja Kvick Nastaj; [2023]
   Keywords : Phytophthora infestans; Fungicide tolerance; Fungicide dose;

   Abstract : For the last 180 years, the pathogen P infestans, responsible for the late blight disease, has been a severe problem for farmers. Despite the large efforts and financial investments done in the management of the disease, 15-30% of the potato production is lost to this disease globally each year. READ MORE
