    Författare :Fayez Altabbaa; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Fusarium graminearum; conidium suspension; hypha agar plug; root architecture traits; root cellar structure traits; shoot traits; genotypes;

    Sammanfattning : 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

    Sammanfattning : The zoonotic disease tularemia is caused by the bacterium Francisella tularensis that infects both humans and wildlife in Sweden. Associations between outbreaks of tularemia and lakes and rivers have earlier been observed, and semi-aquatic rodents and mosquitoes are believed to be key species groups in the epidemiological cycle of the disease.

    Nyckelord :vector; Japanese encephalitis; mosquitoes; alternate wetting and drying; Vietnam;

    Sammanfattning : Japanese encephalitis is an important disease affecting 70,000 people every year, with young children constituting the major part. Growing rice with alternate wetting and drying (AWD) methodology reduces water consumption at the same time as it contributes to a reduction in greenhouse gas emission. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Samexistens mellan vilda och tama djur fungerar inte alltid smärtfritt. Pastoralister, vars djurhållning bygger på att gå med djuren dit bete finns, så kallad frigående betesdrift, påverkas i stor grad av det vilda djurlivet. Ett stort problem för pastoralister i vissa områden i Afrika är gnuer. LÄS MER
