Application of geographical information systems, GIS, for the analysis of epidemiological data (Project)
By implementing council directive 2003,99,EC and preparing the implementation of regulation (EC) No. 2160,2003 comprehensive data are collected. Baseline studies on the prevalence of salmonella in several animal populations have been completed already or will be completed in 2007 which provide for representative data. In this project the usage of GIS systems for the presentation and analysis of...

Development of a Variable-Number-Tandem-Repeat Analysis (MLVA) typing system for Salmonella Enteritidis isolates (Project)
The Multiple-Locus-Variable-Number-Tandem-repeat Analysis (MLVA) became within the last years an important tool to subtype various bacteria species including Salmonella enterica serovars. In the last year the MLVA method was established for Salmonella Typhimurium at the NRL-Salm. The fragment analysis of the PCR products is performed by an ABI 310 Sequence Detection System. Currently, there is no...

Investigation of occurrence, types and human pathogenicity of Shiga- toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC) in meat samples from wild-life animals as a basis for risk assessment (Project)
Current data indicate that meat of wild-life animals bears a risk as source of STEC contaminants which might behave as human pathogens. Very little is known on the type spectrum and the virulence attributes of STEC from deer and other wild-life animals. The aim of the project is to collect STEC isolated from game and to characterize these strains for their signifance as potential human pathogens.

Humus reproduction of fermentation products from biogas plants (Project)
The overall objective of the project is to create a scientific basis for a differentiated assessment of the reproduction performance of humus fermentation products in order to develop strategies for a balanced humus balance in the cultivation of energy crops with the use of fermentation products.

Microbial stress response of Campylobacter jejuni and its role in food processing (Project)
To decrease foodborne human Campylobacter infections, apart from the reduction of the Campylobacter contamination domestic animal and the avoidance of cross contamination, the reduction of the pathogen within the food chain by technological processes plays a crucial role. Despite its high sensitivity against stressors and its ? in opposite of other bacteria - small equipment with genes, which...

Carry over of nasal Methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA) on the carcass of slaughter pigs at the abbatoir (Project)
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus are cause nosocomial infections in humans in hospital.MRSA have been isolated from the noses of slaughter pigs in Germany in 2007. The prevalence of MRSA in food of animal origin shall be determined in the course of an active monitoring of zoonoses in 2008. The carry over of nasal MRSA on the carcass in the abbatoir is a potential hazard to food safety.

Development of late-blight (Phytophthora infestans) resistant breeding material for organic farming (Project)
A focussed breeding of potato varieties for organic farming in Germany will be initiated by a network of organic farmers actively involved in the practical breeding process, potato breeders and research institutes dealing with potato. The project aims at combining low susceptibility against late blight with other positive resistance and quality traits in pre-breeding material. The utilisation of...

Improvement of barely to BYDV by using innovative breeding strategies – Subproject 2 (Project)
Is expected that barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) will become increasingly important in cereal crops since with a warming climate, virus vectors as well as novel virus strains are likely to spread across northern parts of Europe.The resistance factor Ryd4Hb confers complete resistance to BYDV and possibly to its aphidic vectors. Ryd4Hb shall be transferred to German barley breeding lines and...

Collaborative project: Determination of genetic diversity among Lolium perenne accessions with respect to drought tolerance as base for development of marker assisted selection methods and breeding of new cultivars adapted to climate changes – Subproject 2 (Project)
It is expected that global warming and predicted impact of climate change will result in increasing drought periods even in Central Europe. Cultivars with elevated drought tolerance are of special importance in forage and lawn grasses. As most species are perennial, additional stability against seasonal variations is of particular relevance. This project aims at the establishment of methods for...
