  1. 1. Foliar fungal communities of naturally regenerated and nursery-produced Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) seedlings

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

    Author : Sara López Fernández; [2023]
    Keywords : Endophytes; high-throughput sequencing; foliar fungi; forest nursery; fungal community; fungal pathogens; metabarcoding; mycobiome; Pinus sylvestris; pine seedlings; Scots pine needles;

    Abstract : Endophytic fungal communities living in leaves of trees can have a significant impact on their hosts,showing both beneficial and detrimental effects. Some mutualistic fungal species protect the host against pathogens or herbivores, while pathogenic species can increase the vulnerability of the host against biotic and abiotic stresses. READ MORE

    Abstract : Phytopathogens account for a large portion of the yield loss in the world today. Developing sustainable strategies to limit their effect for increasing food safety and security is one of important challenge for agriculture and horticulture production systems. READ MORE

  4. 3. Växtföljdsstrategier för småskalig grönsaksodling

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

    Author : Elin Johnson; Josefine Lundgren; [2021]
    Keywords : gröngödsling; stallgödsel; organiska gödselmedel; kväveläckage; ekologisk odling; direktförsäljning; green manure; animal manure; organic fertilizers; nitrogen leaching; organic farming;

    Abstract : Det övergripande målet med denna studie var att undersöka vilka utmaningar som den småskaliga ekologiska grönsaksodlaren ställs inför och hur en näringseffektiv växtföljd kan planeras med hjälp av organiska gödselmedel. I denna litteraturstudie sammanställde vi forskning som undersökt hur tillämpningen av en varierad växtföljd kan användas som en långsiktig odlingsstrategi i syfte att uppnå en effektiv näringshushållning, hindra uppförökning av skadegörare, minska ogrästrycket och bibehålla markens bördighet i ekologisk grönsaksodling.
