SLU calculates and reports emissions and uptake from Sweden's Land use, Land Use Change and Forestry sector (LULUCF).
We provide undergraduate courses that can take place both in the field and in the molecular lab. We also give a postgraduate education.
Our research is focused on interactions involving plants, pathogenic, symbiotic and saprotrophic fungi and other microorganisms and their role in forest and agricultural systems.
For the first time, researchers have shown that one fungal species can control the behavior of...
Now, we are looking for three new professors in plant pathology, in microbial ecology in forest...
As the climate gets warmer, the permafrost will thaw, and enormous amounts of carbon bound in the...
Through our research we answer questions about how agriculture and forestry can be conducted in a world where the climate is changing.
Microbes play a very important role in the ecosystem of our planet. We focus on interactions involving plants, pathogenic, symbiotic and saprotrophic fungi and other microorganisms and their role in forest and agricultural
systems. We actively collaborate with the forest industry and farmers as well as perform basic research to understand underlying mechanisms.
The Department is part of the BioCenter at SLU in Uppsala.
