Collaborative project: Development of breeding material of basil (Ocimum basilicum) with resistance against downy mildew (Peronospora sp.) and with increased tolerance to low temperatures - Subproject 1 (Project)

Downy mildew (Peronospora sp.) on basil (Ocimum basilicum) occurred the last seven years with substantial extent in glasshouses in Germany. The pathogen can spread rapidly within the crop. Pots with infected plants are not marketable what re-sults in a large financial loss for the producers. A chemical control of the pathogen is not possible. The development of a control strategy against downy...

Collaborative project: LEDs in plant illumination systems based on PAR (Photosynthetic Active Radiation) to improve the efficiency of in vitro and in vivo production protocols – Subproject 1 (Project)

The development and testing of LED lighting systems is aiming at lowering the energy demands in climate chambers and greenhouses. LEDs could contribute to the increase of energy efficiency of plant cultures. Results: – Development of innovative methods of illumination by LED for in vitro laboratories as a technique saving energy and to preserve the environment. – Increase of energy efficiency in...

Collaborative project: Identification and functional characterisation of the Co (columnar) -gene in columnar apple varieties as a basis for a systematic use in breeding - Subproject 1 (Project)

This project aimed at the efficient selection of columnar apple varieties as a basis for a new production system. The columnar growth type is an accidentally discovered natural mutation of a single gene and is inherited in a dominant way. It has the potential for a less laborintensive production and thus is economically of high interest. We could with great certainty identify the genomic...

Collaborative project: Establishment of steady partnerships for sustainable supply of renewable raw materials for German enterprises, subproject 1: Project coordination and design of a commodity partnership (Project)

Establishing steady and sound raw material partnerships between countries producing renewable resources and countries having a high demand in raw material shall lead to a certain independency of price increase and will assure long lasting benefits for both sides, on one hand by possibilities for additional income and on the other hand by a certain market independency as well as stability of...

Collaborative Project: Development of innovative process integrated microbiological stage control systems for the reduction of Campylobacter spp. and Salmonella spp. in meat production - Subproject 1 (Project)

The commercial success of meat and meat products in national and international markets depends on the production of healthy foods under proper hygiene conditions. Therefore, the Federal Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Consumer Protection (BMELV) initiated a program to promote innovations for the enhancement of meat quality. One task of this program addresses the reduction of Salmonella and...

Collaborative project: Framework to provide information to consumers at the point of sale concerning shelflife and product properties for fruit an vegetable using the example kiwifruit - subproject 1 (Project)

Consumers are worried about the circumstances under which fruit and vegetable have been produced. The aim of this project is therefore to develop a system which gathers data along the supply chain of kiwifruit production and provides this data to the consumer, who can use it to take his decision whether to buy or not at the point of sale. In detail the following information will be given to the...

Potentials for the mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions at the energy crop cultivation for the biogas production. Subproject 1: Project coordination and investigation of climate impact on the sites Dedelow and Jena (Project)

It is aim of the joint research project to derive precise and generalized statements concerning the NH3 volatilization, changes in the soil carbon stock (soil organic matter) as well as to climate balances, and live cycle assessments in case of energy crop cultivation for the biogas production. This applies especially to the field application of the fermented biogas substrate. Measures for the...
