  1. 1. Approaches to Species Delineation in Anamorphic (mitosporic) Fungi : A Study on Two Extreme Cases

    Författare :Olga Vinnere; Siv Andersson; Jamshid Fatehi; Berndt Gerhardson; Stephen B. Goodwin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; fungal taxonomy; Colletotrichum acutatum; Mycelia Sterilia; Phoma; Campanella; phylogeny; species concept in fungi; Biologi; Biology; Biologi;

    Sammanfattning : Since the beginning of mycology, studies of species concept in fungi have been mainly based on morphology, partially due to the history of mycology as part of botany. Current advances in biochemical and molecular research have provided mycologists with powerful tools that can be used for delineation of fungal taxa. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Interactions between plants, microbes and insects

    Författare :Laura J. A. van Dijk; Ayco J. M. Tack; Arjen Biere; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aboveground–belowground interactions; Anemone nemorosa; fungal pathogens; insect herbivores; plant–pathogen–insect interactions; pollination; soil microorganisms; spatiotemporal disease dynamics; Quercus robur; ekologi och evolution; Ecology and Evolution;

    Sammanfattning : Plants interact with an astonishing diversity of insects and microorganisms. Both above- and belowground, plants are attacked by herbivores and pathogens, and interact with mutualists such as pollinating insects and beneficial microorganisms. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Population biology of the clonal plant Ranunculus lingua

    Författare :Mats E. Johansson; Christer Nilsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; clonal fragmentation; emergent macrophytes; fungal pathogens; hydrochoiy; invertebrate grazing; marginal population; Peronospora gigantea Prasocuris phellandrt regional abundance; rhizome production; size-number trade-off; vegetative reproduction; water-level fluctuation;

    Sammanfattning : The scope of this thesis was to identify, describe and quantify important life-history traits for the pseudoannual aquatic plant Ranunculus lingua in different ecological settings, by comparing populations from geographically marginal vs. central habitats. LÄS MER

  4. 4. The hidden half of the meadow : Interactions between drought, soil carbon, roots and soil microbial communities

    Författare :Daniela Guasconi; Gustaf Hugelius; Sara Cousins; Stefano Manzoni; Petra Fransson; David Johnson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; soil; soil carbon; soil ecology; roots; root traits; microbial communities; grasslands; climate change; drought; land management; compost; naturgeografi; Physical Geography;

    Sammanfattning : Soil is a hidden ecosystem which harbours plant roots and countless microorganisms, vital for sustaining life aboveground. These belowground communities provide essential ecosystem services like soil stabilisation and organic matter decomposition. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Fungal and bacterial contributions to decomposition in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems

    Författare :Margarida Soares; MEMEG; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fungi; bacteria; microbial carbon use efficiency; litter decomposition; priming effect; heavy metal stress;

    Sammanfattning : Microbial decomposers process a great majority of net primary production in the biosphere and regulate carbon (C) and nutrient cycling. Microbial communities are extremely diverse and often disregarded from global C-cycling models, but one strategy to overcome this challenge is to focus on the major decomposer groups: fungi and bacteria.
