Cereal production is limited by many different factors. Leaf diseases are often well known, while diseases on roots are more difficult to identify. Root diseases are often caused by oomycetes, fungus-like microorganisms that live for years in soil and on old root debris, parasitizing the roots of wheat, barley, and many other plant species. Adult plants may be stunted and/or chlorotic, as if nitrogen deficient. Symptoms are often difficult to recognize and diagnose. Severe infections cause a general root rot. Within the project group we have noticed both Aphanomyces and Pythium spp. on roots of barley and Pythium spp. on wheat. These pathogens are overlooked and they cause diseases that can be important in all cereal-producing areas. In this project, we aim to identify the pathogens, assess the pathogenicity on different hosts and cultivars in the crop rotation and also evaluate the effects of seed treatments and lime.
Skördarna av spannmål begränsas av många faktorer. Bladsjukdomar är ofta väl kända, medan sjukdomar på rötter är svårare att identifiera och kartlägga. Rotsjukdomar orsakas ofta av oomyceter, svamplika organismer som kan leva i jord och växtrester i tiotals år. Symptom av dessa patogener är ofta diffusa och plantorna kan bli kortväxta och gulnande, som om de har näringsbrist. Vi har sett att det finns en art av Aphanomyces, som angriper rotsystemet i korn och även arter av Pythium i både korn och vete. Dessa patogener kan påverka skörden i mycket större omfattning än vad som hittills är känt. Projektets syfte är att öka produktiviteten i svensk spannmålsodling genom att uppmärksamma och minska skördeförlusterna orsakade av dessa rotsjukdomar. Målet är att identifiera patogenerna, testa patogeniteten på några vanligt förekommande lantbruksgrödor och även på olika sorter av korn och vete. Vi avser även att utvärdera motåtgärder i form av fröbetning och kalkning.

The aim of the project is to study effects of LED-light on milk production and activity in dairy cows. The main hypotheses are that LED light allows maintained cow activity and milk production with less energy used for illumination, and that LED-light makes it possible to apply a dark period during …

Swedish strawberry production suffers from several severe insect pests. When usage of traditional insecticides is phased out and IPM implemented novel green methods for pest control are urgently needed. The strawberry tortricid, Acleris comariana, is a severe pest on strawberries. Its larvae feed …

Wheat bran is the largest by-product of wheat flour production with approximately 300,000 tonnes in Sweden. Bran is mainly used in animal feed, as human digestion is not fully able to absorb it. Wheat bran contains valuable biomolecules, such as dietary fiber (arabinoxylans, AX) and phenolic …

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 …

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 …
