1. The Valeriana officinalis aggregate in Sweden. A preliminary study.
Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskapSammanfattning : Common valerian (Valeriana officinalis L.) is a species of flowering plants native to Europe, the roots of which have been used in folk medicine for centuries. But due to high diversity in morphology and chromosome numbers, different populations in V. LÄS MER
2. Analysis of simulated functional diversity in tropical forests: Differences between cultivated and naturally grown secondary forests in Cambodia
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : Accelerated deforestation represents a major global environmental concern. Over the last decades Cambodia has experienced a drastic decrease in forest cover and measures to halt deforestation have not been as effective as planned. LÄS MER
3. ARCTIC PLANT COMMUNITIES RISE WITH TEMPERATURE Plant functional traits as a tool to predict global climate change
Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskapSammanfattning : Global warming occurs at a rate at least three-fold in the arctic regions compared to the rest of the world. Here, plant community functional traits were assessed in response to experimental warming in three arctic areas of Fennoscandia (Latnajajure, Abisko and Kilpisjärvi). LÄS MER
4. Assessing the effect of Fusarium graminearum inoculation on the root structure of Swedish winter wheat cultivars (Triticum aestivum
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Crop Production EcologySammanfattning : Several diseases attack the wheat crop and reduce the yield, such as root disease, which causes a tremendous loss in wheat production. Root rot has a variety of causal agents, such as nematodes, viruses, and bacteria, but the most common pathogens causing wheat root rot are oomycetes and fungi. LÄS MER
5. Peatland restoration: A mossy affair? : The similarities of the vegetation communitiesbetween restored bogs and natural bogs.
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningSammanfattning : Peatlands function as important global carbon sinks as peatlands store 30% to 40% of the total soil carbon even though peatlands only cover 3% of the Earth's terrestrial surface. However, drainage activities have damaged the ecosystem and caused many peatlands to function as carbon sources instead. LÄS MER
