Collaborative project: Molecular charcterization of different TRV isolates and analysis of the interaction between virus, nematode and potato to improve resistance breeding. Subproject 4 (Project)
...The genome of the TRV consists of RNA1 and RNA2 strands. The composition of the RNA bases can vary greatly depending on the geographic origin of the isolates. ...During the reporting period we accomplished the following: 1) Confirmation of visual disease screening by PCR, 2) verification of dependency of the TRV genome variability on location, 3) detection and identification of (vector) nematodes species and TRV isolates found at the various locations, 4) further activities to establish pure nematode cultures....

Collaborative project: Standardizing the GEOBOX infrastructure - Phase 1: Decentralized data storage and regional mashup - subproject 2 (Project)
...The goal of the project GeoBox-I is the experimental development, testing and dissemination of a practicable prototype of a standardized and resilient GeoBox infrastructure for decentralized data storage and regional networking. This includes (1) providing data structures and vocabularies for exchange-relevant information which are easy to understand in a suitable web portal as a public service to the industry; (2) the GeoBox specification as a corporate data hub with a cache for a variety of relevant information, under the sole control of the particular farm; (3) the provision of key geospatial and technical data for farms with decentralized storage in farms; (4) the realization of communication protocols and form assistants for standardized data exchange with third parties; (5) the design of exemplary services that extract directly useful advice to farmers from the standardized data available; and (6) the implementation of all essential functions in the form of disclosed reference implementations of exemplary applications. ...The 5 packages of the work plan include 1) design and specification of the system concept and the overall architecture, 2) the realization of the infrastructure level with GeoBox server with dynamic vocabulary services (including provision of vocabulary and appropriate change management), 3) the reference implementation of a 'HofBox' as decentralized knowledge store and node for internal and external data communication (operational level of resilient communication capability), 4) the realization of exemplary apps for communication, service and consulting assistance to agricultural applications in the field (examples of service level), finally 5) the support of roll-out and practical introduction by training and further education, training courses, cooperations with model companies, comparison with other federal states and establishment of a project-accompanying advisory board from associations, industry and users. ...

SFB 564: B3.2 - Irrigation and fertigation strategies for water saving and optimum nutrient supply in subtropical fruit orchards utilising stress responses (strategic irrigation) (Project)
...Due to the scarcity of water and its susceptibility to contamination with agrochemicals, the objective of subproject B3.2 is to reduce water and fertilizer application without reducing farmers’ benefits. ...(B) Fertigation: Zn and B stress effect flower induction, which has to be considered for improved orchard management. (C) Participatory field application: An adapted irrigation control unit was developed and indigenous knowledge on deficit irrigation was identified. ...Telecommunication will be used to disseminate results to practical farming (Topic C)....

Genotoxicity of heat-induced food contaminants (Project)
...Those three compounds (3-chloro-1,2-propanediol, 2-chloro-1,3-propanediol, and 2-formylthiazol) that had been predicted by the computer models to have the highest propability for a mutagenic potential were indeed positive in the Ames test, whereas the other nine compounds with the lower propability for a mutagenic potential were negative in the Ames test. ...As an example, the mutagenic potential of the compound 2-methylphenol was predicted to be very low, howevere, the compound was clearly positive in the micronucleus assay. ...

Collaborative project: In this project, an alternative protein source will be produced in a sustainable and economical process. In this process, side streams from the sugar industry are converted by edible fungi to a protein-rich biomass, which is subsequently processed into fungal/meat hybrid products - Subproject A (Project)
...Furthermore, the process will subsequently be transferred to a pre-industrial scale of 3,000 L to 5,000 L, and the up- and downstream process steps will be established. ...

SPRUCESAVER (Project)
...Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.] H.Karst.) showed severe mortality following the extreme summers of 2018 and 2019, but also in the following years, mainly in off-site situations, triggered by epidemic outbreaks of bark beetles. ...In view of the advancing climate change, forestry should better protect spruce on suitable sites against pests, especially against spruce bark beetles (Ips typographus L.), and this requires innovative methods. Current protection measures, such as the use of trap trees and pheromone traps or the removal of infested trees are not effective in controlling beetle populations under expected mass development during hot dry summers. ...

Collaborative project: Decentralised processing of rarely used plant and animal raw materials into innovative products with high added value to improve the nutritional situation in West Africa. Subproject 1 (Project)
...Worldwide, annual food losses amount to 1.3 billion tonnes. This corresponds to one third of total production, i.e. an economic loss of about US$ 750bn (FAO, 2011). ...The consortium research project UPGRADE Plus - Subproject 1, aims at improving the nutrition of women, infants and young children based on three case studies (Ghana, Nigeria, Sierra Leone) and at the same time creating opportunities for income generation with a focus on women's self-help groups in West Africa. ...
