The development of UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) imaging technologies for precision farming applications is rapid, and new studies are published frequently. In cases where measurements based on imaging, there the need to have ground truth or reference data in order develop reliable applications. However, several use such as pests, weeds, diseases detection, can be subjective relatively difficult capture. Furthermore, collection usually laborious time consuming. It also appears that it...
Fusarium head blight (FHB) and the accumulation of deoxynivalenol (DON) mycotoxin induced by graminearum other fungi cause serious problems for oat production in Nordic region (Scandinavia, Fennoscandia). Besides toxin accumulation, FHB causes reduction grain yield germination capacity. Here, genomic approaches accelerating breeding efforts against DON were studied. Resistance-related traits included content, F. DNA (relative to DNA) content (qFUSG) measured with real-time quantitative...
BACKGROUND: Phytophthora cactorum crown rot is currently limiting strawberry cultivation worldwide.Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and bacterial endophytes have shown promising results as biological control against the disease.Growing medium can also influence e.g., composts been to suppress soil borne pathogens. OBJECTIVE:The aim of study was investigate effect AMF, endophytic bacteria different growing media rot.METHODS: Three pot experiments were conducted in greenhouse conditions.Each...
Abstract Fusarium head blight (FHB) and the mycotoxins produced by its causal agents in oats ( Avena sativa L.) have become a growing problem northern countries over last decades. The development of resistant cultivars would offer highly needed economical solution to problem. To tackle high genotype×environment interaction FHB, combined analysis was carried out on eight greenhouse 13 field experiments inoculated with DON-producing species. Our data included 406 oat genotypes consisting...
Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) of four Multi-parent Advanced Generation Inter-Cross (MAGIC) populations identified nine regions on chromosomes 1H, 3H, 4H, 5H, 6H and 7H associated with resistance against barley scald disease. Three these are putatively novel Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL). Barley is caused by Rhynchosporium commune, one the most important leaf diseases that prevalent in barley-growing regions. Up to 40% yield losses can occur susceptible cultivars. Four MAGIC were...
Abstract Over the last three decades, Fusarium infections and related mycotoxin contamination have caused significant economic losses in oats ( Avena sativa L.). Breeding for resistance is highly prioritized oats, but infection processes components against species are not fully identified. In this study, genetic variation flowering traits its impact on accumulation described. The first experiment of paper was focused 50 oat genotypes (Panel 1) to identify cleistogamic oats. Then, two...
Oat-based value-added products have increased their value as healthy foodstuff. Fusarium head blight (FHB) infections and the mycotoxins accumulated to oat seeds, however, pose a challenge production. The FHB are predicted become more prevalent in future changing climates under limited use of fungicides. Both these factors increase pressure for breeding new resistant cultivars. Until now, genetic links oats against infection been difficult identify. Therefore, there is great need effective...
<ja:p>We analysed the adaptive potential of pedunculate oak ( L.) in terms variation height and survival five field trials located southern central Finland. The were established with Finnish native material from six different seed origins. Thirteen years after planting, number living trees was counted measured for height. Analysis revealed a significant effect origin, i.e., genetic basis to individual tree performance. Two origins Turku region (Ruissalo Katariinanlaakso) performed best while...
Abstract Cultivar resistance is essential for the management of Fusarium head blight (FHB) disease in oat production. However, breeders lack methods suitable phenotyping and sources. In this paper we compared two genotypes, a rejected variety BOR31 landrace VIR7766, with four different traits that could reflect to FHB greenhouse environment. Spray point inoculations were used inoculate graminearum into flowering plants. When spray-inoculated, VIR7766 was significantly more resistant against...
