  1. 1. The potential to use rhizobacteria within agricultural innovations instead of chemical inputs : taking quality and quantity of the crop into consideration

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Plant Biology

    Author : Ida Quisth; Isabella Ulfsparre; [2024]
    Keywords : Biocontrol; Biofertilizer; Biopesticide; Biostimulant; Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria; PGPR; Quality; Rhizosphere Microbiome; Yield;

    Abstract : Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are soil bacteria that occur naturally, colonize the roots of plants and can promote plant growth. PGPR isolated and used as inoculum to seed or plants is mostly marketed as a growth stimulant because it facilitates registration and reduces costs, even though PGPR may also serve as biocontrol products.

  3. 2. Biowastes for Plant Production : a guide to plant biostimulants

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

    Author : Toolie-Mina Anderback; [2021]
    Keywords : biological waste; by-products; organic inputs; fish protein hydrolysate; vermicompost; seaweed extract; fish waste; macro algae;

    Abstract : Biostimulants are a suggested tool to achieve sustainable plant production. These are products sourced from biological processes or extracted from biological material, which induces physiological responses in plants. READ MORE

  4. 3. The effect of spent mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) compost on the indigenous rhizosphere microbiota in strawberry cultivation

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Agricultural Biosystems and Techology

    Author : Hani Elaamer; [2020]
    Keywords : Trichoderma spp; Actinomyces spp; Pseudomonas spp; Bacillus spp;

    Abstract : Spent mushroom compost (SMC) is a by-product of mushroom cultivation with the potential to be used in the cultivation system to suppress plant pathogens, enhance water holding capacity, increase soil water aeration and to improve the soil structure through the input of organic matter and additional nutrients. The electric conductivity (EC) as well as pH recorded high values in the SMC, which is a challenge for its application in food production systems. READ MORE

  5. 4. Implications of a dynamic vertical root distribution for modelled water and carbon fluxes across selected ecosystems : incorporating a novel rooting scheme into LPJ-GUESS

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Lasse Keetz; [2019]
    Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem Analysis; Ecosystem Modelling; LPJ-GUESS; Vertical Root Distribution; Dynamic Root Distribution; Carbon and Water Fluxes; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Roots play a key role in terrestrial carbon and water cycles, and therefore for the global climate system. They mediate plant evapotranspiration, influence photosynthetic processes and are responsible for atmospheric carbon transport into the pedosphere. Fine roots, in particular, are chiefly regulating water and nutrient uptake. READ MORE

  6. 5. Analysis of organic compounds in the rhizosphere soil of Cyperus rotundus using LC-MS

    University essay from KTH/Kemi

    Author : Daniel Ruotsalainen; [2018]
    Keywords : LC-MS; Method development; Rhizosphere soil; Cyperus rotundus; SPE; LC-MS; Methodutveckling; Rhizosphere jord; Cyperus rotundus; SPE;

    Abstract : Den presenterade studien hade som syfte att utveckla en extraktions-, provpreparerings- och analysmetod för jorden, i vilken gräset Cyperus rotundus växer, i ett försök att identifiera möjliga äggläggningsattraherande ämnen för myggan Anopheles gambiae. Högupplösande vätskekromatografi med hydrofob stationär fas (RP-HPLC, en. READ MORE
