1. Spray Induced Gene Silencing in Phytophthora infestans : investigating exogenous dsRNA application for the control of potato late blight
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Plant Breeding (from 130101)Sammanfattning : Phytophthora infestans is an oomycete pathogen and the causal agent of late blight disease in potato and tomato. Even today, it causes massive loss to crop and economy worldwide. Current disease control strategies include breeding for resistance and extensive fungicide spray. LÄS MER
2. Assessing water balance and yields in Malawian cropping systems : maize soybean and maize Gliricidia systems resilience against climate change
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Soil and EnvironmentSammanfattning : In Malawi, maize monocultures are increasingly susceptible to extreme weather patterns, causing considerable yield reduction and heightened food insecurity for smallholder farmers dependent on rainfed subsistence agriculture. Diversifying cropping systems is crucial for ensuring yield resilience. LÄS MER
3. Assessment of Climate Change Impact on Rainfed Barley Production in the Mediterranean Basin : The Almeria province case study
Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikSammanfattning : The Mediterranean basin is widely recognized as a climate change hotspot, with climate models projecting increasingly warmer and drier conditions that will impact local ecosystems, communities, and economies. Agriculture will be among the most affected sectors, with harsher conditions for crops’ growth, greater water needs, and lower yields. LÄS MER
4. Winter wheat exudates : Improving wheats resilience to drought
Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskapSammanfattning : Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a crop that dominates the diets of about 35% of the world's human population. But wheat yields can be severely affected by drought. Therefore, in this experiment, root exudation of winter wheat was compared to find out how exudation changes during drought stress. LÄS MER
5. The potential to use rhizobacteria within agricultural innovations instead of chemical inputs : taking quality and quantity of the crop into consideration
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. Of Plant BiologySammanfattning : Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are soil bacteria that occur naturally, colonize the roots of plants and can promote plant growth. PGPR isolated and used as inoculum to seed or plants is mostly marketed as a growth stimulant because it facilitates registration and reduces costs, even though PGPR may also serve as biocontrol products.
