    Sammanfattning : Ectomycorrhizal fungi form symbiotic associations with tree roots and assist in nutrient-uptake and -cycling in forest ecosystems, thereby constituting a most significant part of the microbial community. The aims of the studies described in this thesis were to evaluate the potential of DNA-based molecular methods in below-ground ectomycorrhizal community studies and to investigate changes in ectomycorrhizal communities on spruce roots in sites with different N deposition, and in sites subjected to harvesting of forest residues or application of wood ash.

  2. 2. The Growth of External Ectomycorrhizal Mycelia in the Field in Relation to Host Nutrient Status and Local Addition of Mineral Sources

    Författare :David Hagerberg; Kvartärgeologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plant ecology; Potassium; Phosphorus; Norway spruce; Picea abies; Whole-tree harvesting; Ectomycorrhizal fungi; Wood ash fertilization; Växtekologi; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Sammanfattning : A method based on ingrowth mesh bags was developed to study the production of EMM. These bags were made of nylon mesh with a mesh size of 50 mu-m, which allows colonisation by fungal mycelia but excludes the tree roots. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Carbon castles vs. beetle-fungus armies : phenology of the spruce bark beetle and Norway spruce resistance in times of climate change

    Författare :Petter Öhrn; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : In recent years, carbon sequestration in European forests has decreased due to extensive droughts and bark beetle outbreaks brought on by climate change. The Eurasian spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus (L.)) is a natural disturbance agent in forests where Norway spruce (Picea abies (Karst)) is dominant. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Outbreak dynamics of the spruce bark beetle Ips typographus in time and space

    Författare :Simon Kärvemo; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The European spruce bark beetle Ips typographus (L.) is one of the most important pests of mature Norway spruce Picea abies (Karst.) in Europe. Outbreaks (periods with large-scale beetle-caused tree mortality) are often triggered by large-scale stormfellings or drought, which provide a large surplus of suitable breeding material. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Attraction and resistance in the Picea abies – Ips typographus system : host choice in the Eurasian spruce bark beetle

    Författare :Christian Schiebe; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Decades of research have gathered detailed knowledge about the Eurasian spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus L.) and its interaction with its host tree Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) H Karst). LÄS MER
