21. Abiotic stress and plant-microbe interactions in Norway spruce
Sammanfattning : Norway spruce (Picea abies) is a dominant tree species in boreal forests with extensive ecological and economic value. Climate change is threatening these ecosystems, with rising temperatures impacting cold hardening and increasing drought stress in regions experiencing lower precipitation. LÄS MER
22. Soil phosphorus – a multidimensional resource that plays an important role for grassland plant species richness
Sammanfattning : The semi-natural grassland habitats contain an important part of the plant diversity in Europe. Changes in farming practices have lead to drastic decreases in plant species richness. The aim of the present thesis is to contribute to the knowledge about mechanisms governing the plant species richness in grasslands with emphasis on soil nutrients. LÄS MER
23. Recycling plant nutrients from waste and by-products : a life cycle perspective
Sammanfattning : Chemical fertilisers contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, fossil fuel use, use of non-renewable phosphate rock and a flow of reactive nitrogen to the biosphere, exceeding the planetary boundaries. Recycling of plant nutrients from waste and by-products from society would reduce the use of chemical fertilisers. LÄS MER
24. Barley defense genes against aphids
Sammanfattning : Aphids are insect pests with major importance worldwide. By feeding from plant phloem, they directly withdraw nutrients. The feeding injury is often visible in the form of leaf rolling, chlorosis, necrosis or plant deformation. Their pest status is attributed also to vectoring of plant viruses. LÄS MER
25. Plant community assembly during succession from arable fields to semi-natural grassland
Sammanfattning : Large areas of grazed, species rich semi-natural grassland were lost in Europe during the last two centuries and as a consequence led to decreases in grassland specialist species. Therefore, today the “restoration” of grassland on previously arable fields is recommended for the protection of grassland specialists. LÄS MER
