Jakob Eriksson (30 September 1848 – 26 April 1931) was a Swedish plant pathologist, mycologist and a taxonomist. Eriksson was the first to describe the special forms within morphologically similar species of rust fungi. He has over 400 publications on studies primarily focusing on fungal pathogens at the cellular level and understanding the process of infection.
22-520: Eriksson was born in Hyllie , near Malmö , Sweden . His father Anders Eriksson was a farmer by profession. Eriksson got interested in botany when he was pursuing his high school degree in Malmö. He started collecting plants for his class project. Eriksson received his PhD from University of Lund (Sweden) in 1874 entitled “Studies over leguminosernas tubers”. Italian physician and anatomist Marcello Malpighi considered
44-536: Is an area and former city district ( Swedish : stadsdel ) in the central of Malmö Municipality , Sweden . On 1 July 2013, it was merged with Limhamn-Bunkeflo , forming Väster . In 2012, Hyllie had a population of 32,998 of the municipality's 307,758. The area was 901 hectares . Though the name of the district has changed the area is still referred to as Hyllie. It is one of Sweden's most dynamic districts thanks to its location halfway between Malmö Central and Copenhagen Airport . The Eurovision Song Contest
66-1113: Is considered to be first in writing the growers manual on fungal diseases. Eriksson published several books and monographs during his academic career and edited three exsiccatae , among them the well-known series Fungi parasitici Scandinavici exsiccati . He also travelled to different countries in Europe. He participated in several international conferences as a representative of the Swedish government. The credit for establishment of plant physiological laboratory in Erescati near Stockholm goes to him. • Honorary professor (1885) • Token of gold (1897) by Academy of Agriculture • Prix DESMAZIÈRES (prize for 1897 awarded in January 1898) by Académie des Sciences in Paris • Honorary membership of landscape in Swedish and foreign academies On 26 April 1931, Eriksson died in Stockholm county.

110-646: The Port of Malmö . Opened on the Southern Main Line in 1856, it serves approximately 17 million passengers per year. With the opening of the City Tunnel in 2010, the station began through services connecting south to Copenhagen via the Öresund Line , to stations north on the Southern Main Line, saving at least 15 minutes for through passengers. The central station has ten tracks. Four tracks are underground at
132-415: The building was reconstructed, the bell tower was kept. That part, between the platforms and the square Centralplan, was reopened in 1872. More and more lines were built and consequently more and more tracks and train sheds were needed. The new train shed with four new tracks opened in 1891. The Malmö-Kontinentens Järnväg from Malmö to Trelleborg was built in 1898. In 1926, Malmö Central Station became
154-510: The bus stops south of the station with the platforms, the escalators to the lower level platforms and the taxi station located just north of the station. Along the corridor are SJ and Skånetrafiken ticket sales, exchange offices and kiosks, making it the main waiting area of the station. The central hall which previously filled that function is since 2011 a food court with a number of restaurants and smaller shops. The underground platforms can also be accessed from an entrance located just west of
176-537: The city tunnel. This is due to Denmark using right-hand traffic for railway, and not left-hand traffic like Sweden. In order not to have to switch direction of traffic at the Öresund Bridge, which was the case before the City Tunnel extension, and thereby increasing capacity, the switch from left to right traffic now happens entering into the Malmö Central Station's underground tracks coming from north, thus making
198-504: The entire City Tunnel operate right-hand traffic. The south platform (track 3-4) is thus usually served by trains heading north out of the City Tunnel. The above ground part of the station - tracks 5-10 - is a terminal station made up of four side platforms with two tracks each between the three spaces between these. From here services usually either begin or terminate their route. A decent amount of train services - both local, regional and long-distance - still fall into this category, and thus
220-590: The frequency of service, as each train had to both enter and leave Malmö by the same tracks. This situation was solved with the opening of the City Tunnel in December 2010, finally allowing through traffic. All passenger traffic to/from Denmark now uses the tunnel, and most local trains use it, too, terminating instead at Hyllie station at the other end of the tunnel if not going beyond Malmö. The tunnel tracks make up tracks 1-4, and most traffic has shifted to this lower level of Malmö Central Station. The terminus station
242-479: The new Öresund Bridge . Malmö became the centre of the new Öresund train regional railway system spanning eastern Denmark and much of southern Sweden, which in 2009 became integrated with local buses and trains in most of its service areas. The trains were, however, forced to reverse direction in Malmö’s terminal station, which created delays for passengers travelling to Denmark from Lund and further north, and restricted

The station consists mainly of two perpendicular buildings above ground - the central hall and the terminus train shed - and a newer glass corridor in between these two older buildings. The glass corridor was inaugurated in 2010 as part of the City Tunnel project in order to connect
286-581: The station at the Anna Lindh 's place. Malmö Station was first opened in 1856, coinciding with the opening of the Malmö–Lund railway. At the time, the area was located in the outer edges of the city, but was convenient to Copenhagen -bound ferries, which loaded and unloaded in the Inre hamnen right in front of the station building. The building was nearly destroyed ten years later in a fire, on 14 December 1866. When
308-402: The station's official name. Though the train shed was built as a terminus, there was also a single through-line for freight next to the station building, allowing hopper wagons to access the port, where they served a large granary plant producing most of the flour for baking in the counties of Skåne and Halland. In 2000, both local and long-distance trains began running directly to Denmark via
330-474: The tubers in legumes as galls. It was Eriksson who described that a fungus is responsible for the galls and therefore could be pathogenic in nature. Although now it's clear that a nitrogen fixing bacteria live in symbiosis with legumes but the work of Eriksson was valued at that time and his dissertation was published in Lund university year book and he was awarded with Zetterstedtska award. Immediately after his PhD, he
352-564: Was 83. To honor Eriksson for his contribution in the field of plant pathology and mycology, the Jakob Eriksson award was established in 1923 at an International Conference of Phytopathology and Economic Entomology at Wageningen. The award was established to encourage the study on plant pathogens and understanding the processes of disease development. The award is administered by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in conjunction with
374-467: Was appointed as a lecturer (docent) in botany at the university. Eriksson had a 22-year-long teaching experiences in university of Lund, university of Uppsala and New elementary school in Stockholm. In 1876 he accepted the botanist position in Academy of Agriculture. In 1885, he was appointed as a professor and director of a newly established plant physiology division. With time the division kept expanding and it
396-488: Was demolished in its entirety to allow for an extension to the Centralplan, its traffic taken over by the City Tunnel. The stations track layout is numbered 1-10 from north to south, beginning with the four underground through tracks. The underground part of the station - tracks 1-4 - is a through station and consists of two island platforms. The northernmost platform (track 1-2) is usually served by trains heading south into
418-404: Was renovated at the same time to accommodate occasional long-distance trains including some services to Stockholm and the night express to Berlin . Its tracks are numbered 5-10 (six tracks as opposed to the original seven: one track was torn up during renovation to allow for more commercial space adjacent to the Centralplan bus terminal). The adjacent train shed previously used for local Pågatågen
440-438: Was reorganized and expanded to Central Institution for experimental system in agriculture. Eriksson was the director of the center from 1907 to 1913 before his retirement. Eriksson primary research interest was in diseases of crops with primary focus on mildew and parasitic fungus. The most significant finding of his research work was to describe the special forms within morphologically similar species of rust fungi. His conclusion
462-541: Was rust fungi are specialized and they are biologically different although they exhibit similarity in morphology. Studies of fungal plant pathogen at cellular level by Eriksson provided the better understanding of the infection process and also contributed to the plant breeding programs. Besides working on rust, Eriksson also studied a lot of other pathogens including clover rot, potato disease and fungus, fruit scab and mold, felt sick on carrot, floral and branch disease in fruit trees, spinach mildew and gooseberry mildew.
