A key property of the boreal forest is that it stores huge amounts of carbon (C), especially belowground in the soil. Amounts of C stored in the uppermost organic layer of boreal forest soils vary greatly in space due to an interplay between several variables facilitating or preventing C accumulation. In this study, we split C stocks into the organic layer and charcoal C due to their difference in origin, stability, and ecological properties. We compared organic layer C and charcoal C stocks in two regions of south-central Norway (Trillemarka and Varaldskogen), characterized by Scots pine and Norway spruce forests with varying fire histories. We used structural equation modeling to investigate how vegetation composition, hydrotopography, and soil properties interplay to shape organic layer C and charcoal C stocks. Pine forests consistently contained larger organic layer C stocks than spruce forests. Charcoal stocks, in contrast, were less consistent across both forest types and study regions as pine forests had higher charcoal C stocks than spruce forests in Trillemarka, while the two forest types contained equal charcoal C stocks in Varaldskogen. Charcoal and soil organic layer C stocks increased with higher fire frequencies (number of fire events over the last 600 years), but not with a shorter time since last fire (TSF). Additionally, vegetation composition, terrain slope, and soil moisture were the most important drivers of the organic layer C stocks, while charcoal C stocks were mainly controlled by the depth of the organic layer. Also, microtopography was of importance for organic layer C and charcoal C, since depressions in the forest floor had more charcoal C than well-drained minor hills.

Apple production in Western Norway faces challenges due to climatic constraints and varying phenology. It is essential for cultivars to adapt to regional ecological factors, while suitable pollinators are necessary for successful cultivation. This study examined the reproductive biology of two newly introduced apple cultivars, ‘Eden’ (Wursixo) and ‘Fryd’ (Wuranda), over two years (2022–2023). Key qualitative and quantitative parameters of reproductive biology were analyzed, including in vitro pollen germination, pollen tube growth within the style and ovary locules, flowering overlap time, and fruit set. The study involved cross-pollination between the pollen recipient cultivars ‘Eden’ and ‘Fryd’, with various pollenizers: ‘Rubinstep’, ‘Red Aroma’, ‘Elstar’, ‘Asfari’ and ‘Professor Sprenger’, as well as self-pollination and open pollination. According to the results from the progamic phase of fertilization and fruit set, the cultivars ‘Rubinstep’, ‘Asfari’, and ‘Fryd’ were the best pollenizers for ‘Eden’. In contrast, ‘Rubinstep’, ‘Eden’, and ‘Elstar’ were the best pollenizers for ‘Fryd’. Looking only at the overlapping of the flowering time between pollen recipient and pollen donor, ‘Professor Sprenger’ and ‘Fryd’ were the best pollenizers for ‘Eden’, while ‘Professor Sprenger’ and ‘Eden’ were good pollenizers for ‘Fryd’.

Key message Multiple QTLs for powdery mildew resistance were identifed in a pre-breeding population derived from the octoploid progenitor species of garden strawberry, including a stable major novel factor on chromosome 3B. Abstract Powdery mildew (PM), caused by the biotrophic fungal pathogen Podosphaera aphanis, poses an increasing threat to garden strawberry (Fragaria×ananassa) production worldwide. While a few commercial cultivars exhibit partial resistance, fungicide application remains essential for managing PM outbreaks. However, breeding ofers a more sustainable approach for controlling PM. A better understanding of the genetics of resistance is required for informed breeding strategies, e.g. through identifying novel resistance factors derived from the progenitor species of garden strawberry, F. chiloensis and F. virginiana. We conducted genome-wide association (GWA) and multivariate analyses in a reconstructed (ReC) strawberry population to investigate PM resistance under natural infection. Leveraging multi-year feld trial data and 20,779 singlenucleotide polymorphism markers, we identifed a novel major quantitative trait locus (QTL) on chromosome 3B, designated as q.LPM.Rec-3B.2, that was consistently associated with high PM resistance in both leaves and fruits. Greenhouse validation with a subset of the ReC population confrmed that this QTL region was stable across feld and greenhouse environments. Promising candidate genes for resistance, including two for MLO and one for EXO70, were identifed within this major QTL. In addition, multi-locus GWA models and non-additive GWA revealed additional resistance QTLs on multiple chromosomes. Despite previous challenges in breeding for robust PM resistance due to its quantitative nature and complex genetic control, our results provide valuable insights into resistance-contributing QTL regions already existing in strawberry, novel wildderived resistance QTLs not previously known, candidate genes, and pre-breeding germplasm carrying resistance traits as resources for future genome-informed breeding eforts.
