Collaborative project: Development of a rapid chlorophyll fluorescence imaging-based early-detection method of mildew-resistant lettuce lines – Subproject 1 (Project)

In this project, an effective non-invasive method for rapid and early detection and evaluation of downy mildew (Bremia lactucae) resistance in young lettuce plants will be developed. Photosynthetic activity is a proven indicator for early detection of impairment of plants. Especially chlorophyll fluorescence imaging (CFI) is well suited for non-invasive measurement of photosynthetic efficiency....

Collaborative project: Offshore site selection for sustainable and multifunctional use of marine areas in heavily used oceans on the example of the North Sea – Subproject 1 (Project)

Objectives: The project aims to create a 'multi-use road map” as a tool for future (existing and further) use of marine areas in the German Bight using the example 'aquaculture” in combination with other infrastructures, such as offshore-wind farms as well as new strategies in the field of passive fisheries. This multiple use concept will help to regulate and reduce the impact on the ecosystem....

Collaborative project: FENA - Efficient and market-oriented production of high-value fish feed additives on the basis of yeast and algae - subproject 1 (Project)

The goal of the research activities is the efficient and market-oriented production of high-value fish feed additives on the basis of yeast and algae. A sustainable aquaculture for the production of nutritionally enhanced high-value and healthy fish shall be achieved. The dry fish feed products are characterized by an optimized bioactivity.For achieving goals described, yeasts with a high fatty...

Collaborative project: Automatic detection of plant diseases with mobile devices and mobile internet for the targeted use of agricultural decision support systems - subproject 1 (Project)

'Goal is to shoot symptoms on sugar beet leaves with the help of cameras in mobile devices (smart phones, cell phones, etc.), to transfer pictures over the internet to a server, to analyze pictures by detection routines (algorithms) and to send the result back. First step is to detect possible disease symptoms on leafs by color and pattern recognition on the photographs. On the basis of a library...

Collaborative project: Development and implementation of an evidence-based therapy and consultancy concept to reduce the use of antibiotics and to minimize antibiotic resistance in dairy farming, Subproject 1 (Project)

Bovine mastitis is an important cause of culling and antibiotic therapy in modern high-yielding dairy herds. The aim of the study is to develop and to implement an evidence-based therapy and consultancy concept to reduce the use of antibiotics and to minimize antibiotic resistance in dairy farming. The project consists of two stages. First, diagnostic systems that enable the rapid identification...

Collaborative project: Influence of different farrowing and rearing systems on animal welfare, animal health and economy in pig farming - an interdisciplinary approach. Subproject 1 (Project)

Animal welfare is becoming increasingly important for government and society. Important requirements are the integrity of the livestock and the opportunity of free movement through the different life periods of the animal. During lactation most of the sows are still fixed in farrowing crates. The confined housing system prevents sows from showing different behaviors during this time, like nesting...
