Statuatory testing of fodder radish for resistance towards Meloidogyne chitwoodi (Project)
The statutory testing of cultivated plants for resistance towards plant-parasitic neamtodes is a mandatory task of the Julius Kühn-Institut regulated by §57 Article 10 PflSchG from 06.02.2012. The test is conducted in close cooperation with the Federal Plant Variety Office. The scope of testing is approximately 20 test varieties per year.

Genetic analysis of wheat resistance to furoviruses Soil-borne cereal mosaic virus (SBCMV) and Soil-borne wheat mosaic virus (SBWMV) (Project)
On the basis of new reports about the occurrence of soil-borne viruses in wheat expects that furoviruses are continue occurred as known up to now. For this reason the wheat breeding is confronted with new tasks to identify new resistance sources in wheat for integration in the development of virus resistant cultivars because soil-borne viruses cause high yield losses. In breeding programs...

Collaborative project: Investigations on specific feeding and housing concepts for fattening boars in order to reduce boar taint due to androstenone and skatole levels in the carcass - BoarTaintDown - subproject 4 (Project)
During the first part of the present study an estimation of breeding values based on androstenone and skatole content of neckfat was established for a terminal sire line. Sires were selected with respect to high and low levels of EBVs. Progenies were produced by specific breeding scheme and used in the feeding trials subsequently. In the last three weeks prior to slaughter five different...

Collaborative project: Electronic towing bar for agricultural machines with surroundings sensor system and adoption of geo-referenced information – Subproject 1 (Project)
The objective of this project is a further development of the electronic tow-bar system for agricultural machines by the same research consortium, so that the safety and automation level of the existing system will be enhanced with respect to driverless farming. Risks, which are disclosed in the existing experimental vehicles, will be reduced considerably with the aid of perception sensors and...

Collaborative project: Electronic towing bar for agricultural machines with surroundings sensor system and adoption of geo-referenced information – Subproject 2 (Project)
Increasing cost pressure on the global agricultural market forces the farming industry to continuously improve productivity and cost efficiency. The consolidation of small acres and the use of more powerful machines provide better economies of scale. Electronic assistance systems for process optimization and automation have gained importance. The electronic tow bar concept enables the...

Collaborative project: Induction of early flowering in poplar and apple to speed up breeding for resistance to diseases. Subproject 1 (Project)
In light of the predicted climate change, tremendous problems are expected to face in particular the forest industry and fruit tree crops in the future. However, the success of tree breeding with regard to economically important characteristics has been very limited because of the long reproduction periods of trees. A new breeding strategy was tested on poplar (Populus spp.) and apple in two...

Collaborative project: Resistance gene pyramidation and characterization of drought tolerance and stem rust resistance in Lolium species by innovative breeding and high-throughput analytical methods. Subproject 1 (Project)
Adaptation of forage grasses to biotic and abiotic stress factors being favoured by anthropogenic climate change is a major challenge for plant breeders. The project aims at improving varieties of ryegrass (Lolium spec.) by (i) accelerated resistance gene pyramiding in the model species Lolium temulentum; (ii) marker-assisted estimation of genome proportions in backcrosses with L. perenne and L....
