Fruit tree canker, caused by the fungus Neonectria ditissima, has become a threat for Swedish apple production. No efficient protective measures are available and no complete genetic resistance is known in apple. However, apple genotypes differ in the level of partial resistance which must be fully exploited. We aim to use recent advances in phenotyping for canker resistance to reveal genetic differences among rootstocks and clarify the impact of a rootstock on scion’s ability to resist the infection. Furthermore, we aim to enhance cultivars’ and rootstocks' genetic resistance with cultivation practices such as Ca fertilization. By that we will produce important knowledge and develop efficient tools for reducing canker damages in apple orchards, in Sweden and internationally. This knowledge will also be applicable for other tree species. The project will be performed by an international research team in collaboration with Äppelriket Österlen Ek. För.
Fruktträdskräfta som orsakas av svampen Neonectria ditissima är ett hot för svensk äppleproduktion. Det finns inga effektiva växtskyddsåtgärder mot sjukdomen och ingen fullständig resistens har hittats hos äpple. Det finns genetiska skillnader i partiell resistens mellan olika genotyper som ska utnyttjas fullt ut. Vi ämnar att använda de senaste framstegen inom fenotypning för kräftresistens för att påvisa de genetiska skillnaderna mellan olika grundstammar och klargöra effekterna av grundtam på den ympade sortens förmåga att motstå infektionen. Dessutom ämnar vi att förstärka sorternas och grundstammarnas genetiska resistens med odlingsmetoder som Ca gödsling. Därigenom kommer vi att producera viktig kunskap och utveckla effektiva verktyg för att minska kräftskador i äppleodlingar i Sverige och internationellt. Denna kunskap kommer också att vara användbar på andra växtslag. Projektet kommer att genomföras av ett internationellt forskarlag i samarbete med Äppelriket Österlen Ek.För.

The purpose of this project is to identify the transmission routes for Campylobacter to broiler flocks and recommend actions at farm level to reduce the number of chickens with Campylobacter. Furthermore, to analyse routines at slaughter including cleaning of slaughterhouses and transport crates to …

Insufficient crop protection is an increasingly limiting factor for crop production. Damage by slugs and cabbage stem flea beetles in winter oilseed rape are timely examples of increasing crop protection problems in Sweden. We will test whether companion cropping winter oilseed rape with frost …

Correct assessment of hind limb lameness is a challenge, also for most experienced vets. This causes incorrect diagnoses and faulty treatment interventions which lead to unnecessary suffering for the horses and an unnecessary financial burden for owners and insurance companies. The aim of this …

Although the equine sector in Sweden has gone through an expansion the last decades, the working methods have not changed. Working conditions must be improved to enable the horse industry to offer safe, sustainable and attractive jobs. The aim is to develop methods and tools for work environment …

Competing unshod is an important issue for the Swedish harness industry. There is a general opinion that performance may increase significantly but it does not always work. The reason for failure may be disturbed locomotion “balance” of the horse or due to pain from the hooves. This is obviously …

Insect bite hypersensitivity (IBH) associated with Culicoides biting midges is the most common allergic skin disease in
horses, seriously reducing welfare of affected horses. The main symptom is severe pruritus, with risk of self-infected
open wounds. The choice for treatment and prevention of this …

Increased production and export of products with high added values, e.g. long-ripened hard cheeses, are considered important steps for a positive development of the Swedish dairy sector. Increased investment in Swedish premium cheese will, however, require increased volumes of high quality raw milk …

The root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne hapla, is an increasing problem in carrot cultivation in Sweden and Europe. Soil analysis is extremely important to plan sustainable crop rotations, reduce nematode multiplication in soil and eventually minimize yield loss. Traditional soil analyses are time …

Disease and production disturbances in a herd are often silent, and may cause major losses if they remain undetected. Continuous analysis and monitoring of data already recorded at the farm level can improve profitability. This project will develop methods for monitoring trends in production and …
