1. Evolutionary genomics of symbiotic fungi
Sammanfattning : Ectomycorrhizae is a mutualistic association between roots of woody plants and a diverse range of soil fungi. The fungi exchange soil derived mineral nutrients for photosynthetic sugars from the host plant. The mycorrhizal symbioses are commonly found in all forest ecosystems and have a major ecological and economical importance. LÄS MER
2. Nutrient balance and salinity stress in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi
Sammanfattning : Earth’s primary production depends to a considerable extent on the mycorrhizal symbiosis, since mycorrhizal fungi supply their host plant with important mineral nutrients. I examined the influence of different nutrient regimes on the fungal partner in the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis. LÄS MER
3. The actinorhizal plant Datisca glomerata : interpreting its symbiotic adaptations by omics-based comparisons with model and non-model organisms
Sammanfattning : Nitrogen is the element that most often limits plant growth and development. Common agricultural practices rely on the application of large quantities of industrially-produced nitrogen fertilizer, which poses a worldwide environmental threat. Sustainable agriculture encourages the use of biologically fixed nitrogen. LÄS MER
4. Developmental patterns in the Nostoc-Gunnera symbiosis
Sammanfattning : Gunneraceae is an angiosperm family comprising about 60 species scattered in the southern hemisphere. All members of the family develop a nitrogen-fixing symbiosis with intracellularly located Nostoc. The aim of the present study was to characterize the symbiosis, structurally and physiologically, with emphasis on G. magellanica and G. LÄS MER
5. Molecular mechanisms in actinorhizal symbioses
Sammanfattning : The symbiosis between the nitrogen fixing acinobacterium Frankia and its actinorhizal host plant is very old and their co-evolution has shaped their niche in the environment. Nitrogen is most often the limiting element in soil, and symbiotic plants can, with the help of their micrsymbionts, compete in an efficient way. LÄS MER
