Development of phenotypic and genotypic tools for improving the breeding of durum resistance to two mosaic viruses (Project)
The cereal mosaic virus (SBCMV) and the wheat spindle striated mosaic virus (WSSMV) are two viruses, present in France, which significantly impact the yield of both common and durum wheat. Several resistance genes providing improved resistance to SBCMV or WSSMV have been identified for soft wheat but not in durum wheat. Thus, breeders are currently relatively powerless to select durum wheat...

Peatland monitoring program for climate protection - forest (Project)
How much carbon do organic soils store? How much does the forest stand store compared to that? What thickness do the peat layers of drained peatlands still have? How do the emissions of organic soils develop? Peatland soil monitoring clarifies these questions and derives measures for climate protection.At around 3%, peatlands account for only a small proportion of the forest area in Germany....

Adaption strategies in forestry under global climate change impact (Project)
In order to adapt European forests to climate change, suitable tree species are needed. In particular, changing environmental factors have a significant impact on forest condition as well as the quantity and quality of wood.New approaches and new innovations are needed to strengthen the Central European bio-based industry competition in the context of the climate change impact. An important...

A matrix model for tracing the origin of wood-based products (Project)
Worldwide, the trade in wood has increased in recent years. Environmental impacts such as forest loss are inextricably linked to the origin of the roundwood. But where does the wood come from?Bilateral trade statistics are only partially suitable for determining the environmental impacts in the country of origin that the use of wood products entails in other countries. This is mainly due to the...

Genome-wide analysis of the genetic diversity of European beech across its distribution range (Project)
The “beech genomics“ project aims to support the adaptation of beech to current and future environmental conditions and the maintenance of high levels of genetic diversity.The adaptation of forest trees to current and future conditions is crucial for preserving stable forest ecosystems. At the same time, it is important to maintain high levels of genetic diversity. The current speed of climate...

Carbon Farming and climate labeling (Project)
Agricultural land possesses great potential to contribute to climate change mitigation by retaining CO2. However, little research has been done on societal expectations and marketing opportunities for carbon farming and climate labels.The debate on the impacts of agriculture on the climate involves consumers, farmers, the agri-food sector, politicians, and scientists alike. The debate is...

Long-term climate mitigation policies for the agri-food sector (Project)
The European Green Deal and the Farm-to-Fork strategies highlight the importance of market-based instruments to alleviate climate change. A quantitative assessment of different instruments is crucial for successful climate policies.Agriculture is not only a victim of climate change, but can also contribute to climate mitigation. On the one hand, greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture could be...

Monitoring of climate-impacting measures in crop and grassland management with satellite data (Project)
With 66.4 million tons of CO2 equivalents, agriculture was responsible for 9% of greenhouse gas emissions in Germany in 2020. Adaptations in farm management can reduce these emissions. Area-wide data on such adaptation measures will be derived from high-resolution satellite data.With the Climate Protection Plan 2050, Germany has committed itself to become largely climate neutral by the second...

Structural Change in Coastal Fisheries (Project)
Coastal fisheries change. Reduced catch opportunities put enormous economic pressure on the fishers. Thereby, fisheries are not exclusively a business. Fisheries is a centuries old cultural practice, which characterises coastal communities until now.For various reasons the number of fisheries enterprises have declined since a couple of years. Baltic Sea fisheries face the greatest challenge since...
