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.

A sustainable use of phosphorus fertilizers has engaged a large number of researchers, especially how to measure
the soil content of available phosphorus. However, the development of results to useful methods for agriculture has
not been a priority. The recommendations are based on extraction with …

The carbon footprint for ruminants is high compared to other food products of animal origin but grazing animals such
as beef and lamb have other positive effects on the environment such as increased biodiversity and carbon
sequestration. Beef- and lamb producers need clear guidelines on how to …
