  1. 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)

    Författare :Poorva Sundararajan; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Phytophthora infestans; RNAi; potato late blight; gene silencing; SIGS;

    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

  3. 2. Robotic Automation of Mechanical Verification

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Integrerad produktutveckling och design

    Författare :Sofie Gårdestam; Amalia Kronér; [2024]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : This master thesis explores the implementation of Collaborative robots into Elekta's mechanical product verification process. Elekta is a pioneer in precision radiation therapy solutions. Ensuring the compliance of Elekta's products with performance, safety, and quality criteria is of great importance. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Quantifying liquid food waste : levels of liquid coffee waste, its causes and barriers and drivers for quantification in the Swedish food service sector

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Författare :Rosa Hellman; [2024]
    Nyckelord :sewage food waste; beverage waste; direct measurement; hospitality; restaurant; serving waste; food waste cause;

    Sammanfattning : Food waste is a waste of resources required throughout the entire supply chain, leading to environmental impacts that could have been avoided. Coffee has a relatively high environmental impact partially due to the high consumption. To identify levels and sources of food waste, and consequently prevent it, quantification is used. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Effective soil organic carbon monitoring in perennial agriculture systems - Sampling protocol development and evaluation

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Maja Holm; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Physical geography; ecosystem science; soil organic carbon; soil sampling; perennial crops; carbon sequestration; carbon farming; Kernza™; soil organic carbon stock; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Perennial agriculture systems are gaining ground as a more sustainable alternative to conventional annual agriculture, partly for their potential to increase the soil organic carbon (SOC) content. Carbon farming is another hot topic for SOC sequestration, as it creates economic incentives for farmers. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Aerodynamics simulations of Scania trucks using OpenFOAM

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Författare :Ziyi Liu; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Heavy-duty truck; Computational fluid dynamics; Air drag; OpenFOAM;

    Sammanfattning : In the field of heavy-duty vehicles, fuel efficiency and environmental protection are factors that need to be focused on, while the aerodynamic drag generated during vehicle travelling is one of the most influential aspects. This thesis delves into the aerodynamic simulation of Scania trucks using the open-source Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tool, OpenFOAM v2206. LÄS MER
