  1. 1. Studies on plant-microbe interaction to improve stress tolerance in plants for sustainable agriculture

    Författare :Shashidar Asari; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Biotic and abiotic stress factors have a major impact on plants and cause extensive losses to crop production. Bacteria that provide growth promotion and prime stress tolerance of plants have great potential to improve crop production and support durable and environmental friendly resource management.

  3. 2. Volatile mediated plant-plant communication in cultivar mixtures : from plant to aphid responses

    Författare :Iris Dahlin; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Modern agriculture is characterized by simplified cropping systems, associated with negative effects on environment, biodiversity and biological control potential. Cultivar mixtures are often presented as a more efficient and sustainable alternative due to additive effects of cultivar properties and pest reduction, but previous studies have provided equivocal results for this claim.

  4. 3. Neural Interfaces to the Odour World of Scarab Beetles

    Författare :Mattias Larsson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Djurekologi; Animal ecology; Intra; Antennal lobe; CNS; Attraction; Olfactometer; Behaviour; Mass spectrometry; Gas chromatography; Electrophysiology; Single sensillum; Receptor neuron; Plant volatile; Sex pheromone; Neuroethology; Odour detection; Olfaction; Coleoptera; Scarabaeidae; Entomology; plant parasitology; Entomologi; växtparasitologi; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi;

    Sammanfattning : Antennal detection and central nervous integration of behaviourally relevant odours in scarab beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) was investigated, using the two Japanese scarabs Anomala cuprea and Phyllopertha diversa (Rutelinae), and the Central African fruit chafer Pachnoda marginata (Cetoniinae) as model species. Electrophysiological single cell recordings in A. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Stress-induced BVOC emissions from forests in Sweden

    Författare :Erica Jaakkola; BECC: Biodiversity and Ecosystem services in a Changing Climate; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Volatile organic compounds; Plant stress; Forests; Volatile emissions; spruce bark beetle infestations; ozone stress; wildfire recovery; Picea abies Norway spruce ; Betula pubescens ssp. czerepanovii; Pinus sylvestris Scots pine ; sweden;

    Sammanfattning : A changing climate is expected to lead to more extreme weather events, such as an increased frequency of droughts and forest fires. Changing forest conditions can offer benefits to species such as insects, including bark borers that thrive in warm conditions. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Insect-plant interactions within cultivar mixtures : volatile plant communication as an underlying mechanism

    Författare :Sokha Kheam; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Promoting genotypic diversity of crops via cultivar mixtures presents a promising strategy to sustainably control insect pests and diseases, and thereby enhance yield. However, the underlying mechanisms responsible for reduced pest performance in cultivar mixtures remain unexplored. LÄS MER
