The rollback of insecticides exposes Swedish horticulture to a multitude of pests. Targeted and sustainable innovations are sorely needed. Here we target several pests of fruits, onion, cabbage, beans and salad and aim to develop 1) species-selective lures using a novel olfactomics platform, 2) use these lures in monitoring in conjunction with an automated early detection system using smart sensor technology, and 3) test these lures in sustainable intervention of these pest. The multispecies, comparative approach is key in the proposal. Proof-of-concept exists for each component: the olfactomics platform (lures for fruit flies), automated detection platform (two prototypes), intervention methods (confusion, disruption, attract & kill). With FORMAS supporting the olfactomics platform, SLF would provide the means for field testing combinations of novel lures, sensors, for early detection and intervention, and provide application horizons well beyond the species and crops mentioned.
Tillbakadragandet av insekticider gör svensk hortikultur känslig för många olika skadeinsekter. För att komma tillrätta med dessa behövs riktade och hållbara innovationer. Här inriktar vi oss på att utveckla lösningar mot skadeinsekter på frukt, lök, kål, bönor och sallad genom 1) selektiva lockbeten utvecklade genom en ny olfaktomik plattform, 2) ett automatiserade system för tidig detektion baserat på smarta sensorer, och 3) hållbar intervention, där vår jämförande metodik över flera arter är nyckeln. Bevis för koncepten finns redan för varje komponent: olfaktomik plattformen (lockbeten för fruktflugor), plattform för automatisk detection (två prototyper), interventionsmetoder (förvirring, störning, “attract & kill”). SLF skulle ta tillvara på stödet från FORMAS (olfaktomik plattform), till applikation genom att tillåta fältförsök av nya lockbeten, sensorer, och tidig detektion samt intervention. Denna ansökan har en horisont bortom de skadeinsekter och grödor som är nämnda här.

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 …
