PhD Student
Department of Plant Production Ecology Doctoral Field: Biology with specialization in Ecology. Description of the PhD Project: Crop production faces increasingly significant challenges due to multiple interacting stress factors, including drought, heat, limited nutrient availability, weeds, pests, and diseases. Genetic diversity in crops can strengthen resilience under such conditions, but how this resilience is expressed depends heavily on environment, cultivation techniques, and management. Cultivation methods using cover crops or undersown intercropping can contribute to sustainability by providing valuable ecosystem services such as regulation of weeds, pests, and diseases, nitrogen fixation, and preservation of soil health and fertility. However, there is still limited knowledge about how genetic diversity in crops and cover crops or undersown intercropping interact to reduce the effects of multiple stress factors, which represents an important knowledge gap that this project aims to fill. The project will investigate how different cultivation methods affect the resilience of main crops, particularly wheat and peas, against multiple stress factors. You will study how different cultivation methods affect the response of various varieties or genotypes under varying growing conditions, with particular focus on the interaction between variety/genotype, environment, and cultivation method. The goal is to increase understanding of how cultivation methods affect different crop genotypes' resilience to multiple stress factors and to identify promising combinations of varieties/genotypes and cultivation methods that can contribute to stable yields and good productivity under low-input growing conditions. Field experiments will be conducted comparing different cultivation methods. Field measurements will include crop development, phenology, yield, and quality characteristics, as well as documentation of a broad spectrum of abiotic and biotic stress factors such as drought, heat stress, nutrient deficiency, and occurrence of weeds, pests, and plant diseases. Surveys of biological diversity, microbiome analyses, and environmental observations will provide additional evidence for assessing the effects of different cultivation methods and for evaluating crop performance. As a PhD student in this project, you will gain broad research experience in conducting field experiments, data processing, statistical analysis, scientific writing, and communication of research results. You will work in close collaboration with researchers at SLU and within a European research consortium. This collaboration provides excellent opportunities to develop your scientific expertise, build an international research network, and contribute to research across national and disciplinary boundaries. Qualifications Master's degree or equivalent in agronomy, plant science, plant biology, plant ecology, plant breeding, agricultural science, or a related field Documented experience with working with plants, crops, or agricultural systems Strong knowledge in plant ecology and understanding of its importance for sustainable crop production and cultivation. Documented experience with statistical data analysis Good ability to communicate in both speech and writing in English Meritorious Experience Documented experience with crop phenotyping, plant physiology, or evaluation of genotypes Documented experience with field assessment of weeds, pests, diseases, or environmental factors Documented experience with scientific writing and scientific communication Valid driver's license for Sweden We place particular emphasis on personal qualities. You should be able to work both independently and in collaboration with others, take own initiatives, handle complex tasks in a structured manner, and contribute positively to an inclusive work environment that encompasses multiple disciplines and countries.
