Chemical defence responses of Norway spruce to two fungal pathogens Open
Constitutive and inducible terpene production is involved in conifer resistance against insects and fungal infestations. To gain knowledge about local defence responses of Norway spruce bark against pathogens and to find potential chemical…

Antifeedants Produced by Bacteria Associated with the Gut of the Pine Weevil Hylobius abietis Open
The pine weevil, Hylobius abietis, is a severe forest pest insect as it feeds on newly planted conifer seedlings. To identify and develop an antifeedant could be one step towards the protection of seedlings from feeding damage by the pine …

Clone specific chemical defense responses in Norway spruce to infestations by two pathogenic fungi Open
Heterobasidion parviporum (Hp) were investigated using four clones of Norway spruce (Picea abies) with different susceptibility to Heterobasidion sp. Eight year old trees were inoculated with Ep and Hp to minimize the variation due to envi…
