Publications
NIBIOs employees contribute to several hundred scientific articles and research reports every year. You can browse or search in our collection which contains references and links to these publications as well as other research and dissemination activities. The collection is continously updated with new and historical material.

Development of Fusarium head blight (FHB) was studied in winter wheat pre-treated with potential defence activators. Several chemicals were pre-screened for their capacity to reduce development of Microdochium nivale in a detached leaf assay. Selected compounds were further tested for their capacity to reduce Fusarium culmorum development in heads of winter wheat in greenhouse and field experiments. In the detached leaf assay, leaves from plants pre-treated with a foliar fertilizer displayed reduced disease development compared to untreated control. A significantly reduced disease development of FHB in plants pre-treated with the foliar fertilizer was also registered in the greenhouse and field experiments. In the field experiment, harvested grainsfrom plants treated with the foliar fertilizer had up to 75% reduction in Fusarium infected seeds compared to grains from non-treated plants.
Abstract
Border cells from the seedling root tips were added to the conidium suspensions of two soilborne rootpathogens, Fusarium sp. and Cylindrocarpon sp. The presence of border cells in the suspension clearly stimulated germination of fungal conidia. Conidia of Fusarium sp. and Cylindrocarpon sp.started to germinate within 3 hours after inoculation.When border cells were washed off, the stimulating effect disappeared. Addition of malt extract caused similar stimulation as border cells. Germination of conidia was suppressed in Al-treated plants.

Abstract
Genetic variation in three multiallelic loci was analysed with Temperature Gradient Gel Electrophoresis in order to assess the genetic population structure of Venturia tremulae var. tremulae in order to understand the evolutionary potential of the pathogen against resistance breeding. Also the identification of the fungus was verified with molecular analysis of reference isolates. The Fst and Gst values were very low indicating no substructuring or restrictions to gene flow between Fennoscandian populations of V. tremulae. The results imply high epidemiological efficiency of the fungus and therefore continuous breeding programme should be implemented for Venturia resistance of aspen.
