EUROPEAN PARTNERSHIP ON ANIMAL HEALTH AND WELFARE (Project)
The vision of the European Partnership on Animal Health and Welfare (EUP AH&W) is to provide society with sustainable livestock production, where infectious animal diseases are prevented and controlled with appropriate means, antimicrobials are used prudently, and animal welfare is respected in every phase of the production process. The partnership will bring together scientists, funders and...

Development of a hyperspectral measurement platform for pest symptom detection in protected tomato cultivation (Project)
Plant protection is increasingly faced with the challenge of effectively controlling pests with less availability of chemical plant protection products (PPP). The political goals of the EU and Germany clearly indicate that the use of chemical PPP should be reduced and problematic agents should be substituted with alternative measures or less harmful agents. Early control measures reduce the need...

Method development and validation for the authenticity control of marine species by next generation sequencing-based analysis (Project)
Within the framework of the §64 LFGB working group "Molecular biological methods for plant and animal species differentiation", a project group was formed to develop and validate at least one next-generation sequencing method for the detection of marine species. The group will be led by the NRZ-Authent. The first goal of the project group is to develop a method for identifying fish species by...

Investigation on the in vitro metabolism of natural contaminants using fish liver microsomes (Project)
After uptake into the body, most contaminants are transformed by metabolic enzymes in humans and animals. This process often changes the toxicological potential of the original compounds before they reach possible sites of action in the body or possibly accumulate there. It is therefore necessary to examine the sometimes species specific metabolic pathways, in order to be able to make initial...

DAM-SN-CREATE – Concepts for reducing the impact of anthropogenic pressures and uses on marine ecosystems and biodiversity (Project)
In the project CREATE II, we are subjecting the interdisciplinary methodology that we developed in CREATE I to a practical test, using it to evaluate the functional connectivity between marine protected areas. A new module for standardisation and plausibility checks will simplify monitoring with genetic methods. Climate change and the intensifying use of coastal seas not only affect the marine...

Establishing the in vitro micronucleus test (OECD TG487) for manufactured nanomaterials (Project)
Genotoxicity testing plays a crucial role in the risk assessment of substances, as genomic stability is of central importance for human health. However, there is still no suitable test guideline for testing nanomaterials for their genotoxic effects. The aim of this project is to establish such a guideline by means of an OECD ring trial for the in vitro micronucleus test, and the BfR participates...

Assessment of formal, natural and social insurances: how to cope best with impacts of extreme events on grasslands for sustainable farming systems? (Project)
Climate change poses one of the main challenges for agriculture, also in Europe. In particular, an increase of extreme weather events is expected to strongly impact economic revenues and the provision of ecosystem services by agroecosystems. Grassland farming systems need to adapt to cope with increasing climate risks and climate change. We address these challenges in the interdisciplinary...

Evaluation of piler dirt sampling methods for the detection of the potato wart pathogen, Synchytrium endobioticum, in the frame of EUPHRESCO (Project)
Synchytrium endobioticum, the pathogen that causes potato wart disease, is regulated as a quarantine pest in Europe and Canada. This categorisation is based on the resistant resting spores of S. endobioticum, which can survive in the soil for more than 40 years. The project will focus on soil sampling methods to improve the efficiency and sensitivity of detecting resting spores. The focus is on...

Dandelion Rubber goes industrial 2 (Project)
In the ongoing research project RUBIN 2, a cooperation with the Fraunhofer Institute for Molecular Biology and Applied Ecology, strategies for weed control in Russian dandelions are to be developed over a period of five years. The focus is on developing herbicide management. As part of experiments in the greenhouse and above all in the field, the effectiveness and tolerance of various herbicidal...
