11. Chemical signals in interactions between Hylobius abietis and associated bacteria
Sammanfattning : The pine weevil (Hylobius abietis L.) is one of the two topmost economically important insect pests in Swedish conifer forests. The damage increase in areas were the silvicultural practice is to use clear cuttings were the insects gather and breed. LÄS MER
12. Fungal molecular ecology in boreal forests and challenges associated with unidentified environmental DNA sequences
Sammanfattning : Many fungi are characteristically difficult to observe and collect, making the process of documenting the world’s fungal diversity challenging. The vast majority of fungal species are undescribed. LÄS MER
13. Exploiting plant defenses to protect conifer seedlings against pine weevils
Sammanfattning : Sweden is one of the top five countries having large planted forest areas, and here the forests are maintained by clear-cut regime, which also promotes the pine weevil (Hylobius abietis), a major threat to Swedish planted coniferous regeneration. Given interest in developing sustainable forest management practices, efficient non-insecticide alternatives are highly demanded to tackle the pine weevil problem. LÄS MER
14. Interactions between ants and pine weevils : effects on forest regeneration
Sammanfattning : Ants interact with plants in various ways and ant presence on plants can decrease local abundance or activity of herbivores, which in turn increases plant fitness. Red wood ants (Formica rufa group) are common species in forests of northern Europe. LÄS MER
15. Prediction of wood species and pulp brightness from roundwood measurements
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents a number of studies, where a multivariate approach was taken to construct models that predict wood species and thermo mechanical pulp brightness from roundwood of Norway spruce and Scots pine. The first and second studies produced multivariate prediction models for wood species from the bark of spruce and pine. LÄS MER
