'Collaborative project: Irrigation in fruit production - minimizing water use while maintaining confidence of the grower - subproject 2 ' (Project)

"Fruit growth is directly dependent on the water status of the plant and thus an ideal parameter to control irrigation. The aim was to develop an autonomous but user-controllable irrigation control based on an optical sensor. A camera system (smartphone) was adapted and programmed to make photographs of the fruits in chosen time intervals, transfer them to a central server system and analyze them...

Collaborative project: Development and evaluation of a test stand for automatic boom distance controls on field sprayers - subproject 2 (Project)

The aim of the project is to develop a test stand for testing of automated systems for distance control of field sprayers. Those electronic devices became wide spread recently with sophisticated sprayers. For sprayers with booms of more than 27 m working width, an appropriate operation is often only possible with computer aids. This is especially true for the control of boom height because only...

Collaborative project: Natural substances against bird damage - Development of a biological repellent applied as seed treatment - Subproject 2 (Project)

In this project a biological repellent based on plant substances against birds is intended to be developed. The goal of the project is to treat corn in a way that damage on seeds and seedlings by birds can be avoided. Furthermore baits against for example rodents could be treated with the repellent to avoid accidental poisoning of birds. Several candidate plants will be screened for repellent...

RYE-BARLEY-DIVERSITY - Bridging genomics and genetic diversity: Association between gene polymorphism and trait variation in cereals (Part 2) (Project)

To gain a further understanding of genes involved in determining grain quality and flowering time in cereal species, we propose to undertake association studies between gene polymorphism and the variation of these traits. Five key candidate genes will be considered for each trait. Comparative sequencing will be achieved on a representative set of inbred lines of maize, sorghum, rice, wheat,...

Collaborative project: Conservation of resources and increase in efficiency in horticultural production by a comprehensive data management – Subproject 2 (Project)

The research project deals with comprehensive data management of horticultural farms. In this context, the software package 'ProdIS-Plant' was developed. ProdIS-Plant provides the necessary data base to optimize resource usage in terms of environmental and economical aspects. Providing comprehensive company data management, a high level of transparency in the production process is possible and...

Collaborative project: development of tools for the assurance of genetic quality of breeding programmes(QA @ Breeding) - Subproject 2 (Project)

A set of software tools were developed in the QS@Breedings project with the objective to enhance competetiveness of breeding programs. Based on inputs and outputs of routine genetic evaluations, a software pipeline (GePipe) is automatically parameterized and executed with a minimum of manual intervention. As outputs, GePipe delivers a complete analysis of the genetic evaluation: a population...
