EU network of excellence EvolTree (EVOLution of TREEs as drivers of terrestrial biodiversity) (Project)

Evoltree will implement genomic and molecular approaches to understand, monitor and predict genetic diversity, ecosystems structures, dynamics and processes in terrestrial ecosystems. The Evoltree Network of Excellence will first study the genetic diversity of trees, as dominant species and drivers of terrestrial biodiversity, and then expand its scope to diversity issues at the community level,...

EUCARPIA triticale selection experiment (Project)

Eighteen different triticale populations are tested at climatically different locations in Europe. After negative mass selection over at least 4 generations at each location, lines will be selected for further examination over several environments. The experiment investigates the influence of natural environmental conditions on the development of triticale populations after several generations in...

Maturation, quality and yield formation of silage maize in dependence of temperature sum and further climatological parameters (Project)

The determination of harvest time in silage maize is a prerequisite for minimizing losses during silage storage and the feedout phase, and for exploiting the yield and forage quality potential of hybrids. With respect to harvest time prediction, models can provide useful tools. The objectives of the present study therefore were to test the suitability of three models for predicting contents of...

Water and nutrient consumption and balances of crops in different cropping systems (Project)

In field trials, the water and nutrient need of crops is quantified under cropping conditions adapted to the climatic conditions expected from climate chance (e.g. choose of different varieties, soil cultivation intensity, fertilizer application)

Effects of elevated atmospheric CO2-concentration on fluxes of carbon and water vapour of a crop rotation (Project)

Besides global warming, the rapidly rising atmospheric CO2-concentration will directly affect vegetation. Elevated atmospheric CO2-concentration stimulates photosynthesis of most C3-plants and reduces leaf transpiration by causing stomatal closure. Several subsequent effects on biomass development and water relations (e.g. water use efficiency) of plant canopies are based on these primary...

Breeding of apple cultivars with high resistance to fungal and bacterial pathogens and high fruit quality for integrated and biological production systems. (Project)

This project deals with the directed combination of important traits of different apple cultivars and/or wild species. Populations resulting from crosses are screened for traits like biotic and abiotic resistances and excellent fruit quality.

Selection of different resistance sources to smut and genetical analyses (Project)

Ustilago fungi are of economic importance in organic farming of oat, and the most effective way of control is to use disease-resistant cultivars. The project's goal is to investigate a variety of potential resistance sources. Promising resources shall be used as cross parents to combine different resistance genes and agronomic productivity. For the resistance sources discovered in project 02OE030...

Breeding of vines resistant to fungus diseases (Plasmopara, Oidium, Botrytis) with high quality (Project)

The development of new grapevine varieties with a complete or most extensive resistance to the viticulturally important fungus diseases (Plasmopara, oidium, botrytis) reduces considerably the plant protection measures and contributes thus to an ecologically beneficial viticulture. To improve breeding efficiency, the elaborated new methods and procedures are incorporated. Newly developed promising...
