The boreal, alpine, and arctic heaths and forests are dominated by dwarf-shrubs along with their symbionts, ericoid mycorrhizal fungi. Dwarf-shrubs are sensitive to climate change and are already affected in large-scale diebacks. It remains to explore how their mycorrhizal symbionts mitigate damages, since little is known about these plant-fungal interactions. Ericoid mycorrhizal fungi are known to aid the host plant with nutrient uptake, but little research exists on their dealings with drought, suggesting a major knowledge gap. A better overview of belowground ericoid fungi at different drought levels might help predict future climate-change induced damage. In our study we aim to find out if and how drought affects ericoid mycorrhizal fungal communities, and pinpoint key species related to drought mitigation.

Foryngelse av gran ved planting - ForGran
Svenske og norske undersøkelser viser stor avgang i plantefelt de første årene etter utsetting. Dette innebærer et stort tap både for skogeierne, skognæringen og for samfunnet. Målet med dette prosjektet er å avdekke årsaker til den store avgangen i plantefelt for gran og bruke denne kunnskapen til å gi veiledning om avbøtende tiltak.

OakBreed: Motorveien til genetisk forbedret eikefrø
OakBreed-prosjektet har som mål å etablere langsiktig foredling av eik i Norge. Fokus er på to hjemmehørende arter: sommereik (
