16. Genomics and transcriptomics of plant beneficial Serratia spp
Abstract : Plant growth stimulation and antagonism against phytopathogens by rhizobacteria are widely recognised phenomena, but the variation in the underlying causal mechanisms between and within different bacterial taxa is still poorly understood. Some bacteria of the genus Serratia are known to be associated with plant roots, and have potential as possible biocontrol agents in agriculture. READ MORE

17. The biology and ecology of Phytophthora infestans: the role of cell wall proteins in development, pathogenicity and potato defence activation
Abstract : Phytophthora infestans was one of the first eukaryotic microbes to be implicated as the causal agent of a plant disease. Despite a relentless research effort over the last 150 years, it remains one of the most economically important phytopathogens today. READ MORE

18. Impact of Brassicaceae cover crops on pea root rot (Aphanomyces euteiches) in subsequent peas
Abstract : The soil-borne pathogen Aphanomyces euteiches Drechs is among the greatest threats to pea production world-wide. This pathogen can persist in soil for many years without a host plant and is very difficult to control due to its long-lived oospores and to environmental restrictions on fungicide application.

19. Phytophthora and Oak Decline - Impact on Seedlings and Mature Trees in Forest Soils
Abstract : This thesis investigated the occurrence of soilborne species of the plant pathogenic genus Phytophthora in southern Swedish oak forests and their possible involvement in southern Swedish oak decline. The emphasis was on the impact of P. quercina on Quercus robur in acid forest soils. READ MORE

20. A molecular network mediating adventitious root initiation in Arabidopsis thaliana
Abstract : To adapt to the ever-changing rhizosphere conditions, land plants evolved a sophisticated root system. The genetic determinants of the root system establishment have been the targets of natural selection, resulting in a very complex but robust molecular networks and circuits. READ MORE
