Collaborative project: Breeding of Black Carrot Varieties high in Anthocyanins for Farming in Germany and Suitable to obtain a Natural Color Extract – Subproject 1 (Project)

Englisch: Black (or purple ) carrots (Daucus carrota) contain red anthocyanins. Concentrates thereof are of increasing importance to industrial colouring of food and beverages. Those concentrates are obtained from a natural source, are chemically unmodified and are of whole-food composition. Therefore they remain food and meet the current trend of industry to use more and more natural...

Collaborative project: Innovative methods of trait recording in dairy cattle as a basis of the modern breeding program of the Nord-Ost-Genetic – Subproject 1 (Project)

Today, the improvement of health and functional traits has become a key issue in dairy cattle breeding. However, it is still the case that traditional recording schemes hardly supply any precise data for these important traits as are required for reliable progeny tests of bulls. On the other hand, a concise collection of such data is possible by using contract herds which are attached to the...

Collaborative project: Non-destructive assessment of root formation capacity in cuttings of ornamental plants using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) – Subproject 1 (Project)

Root formation capacity of ornamental cuttings is strongly affected by nitrogen (N) and carbohydrate (CH) status. However, the lack of methods for a direct measurement of these internal quality parameters impedes a broad use of this knowledge within the young plant industry. Within the joint research a calibration model for non-destructive measurement of the N and CH status of cuttings by...

Collaborative project: An automatic multi parameter expert system designed to improve animal welfare and productivity for sows and piglets in the farrowing crate - subproject 1 (Project)

The aim of the project MultiExpert was the improvement of animal welfare and productivity in farrowing pens. Therefore different sensors for the recording of animal individual physiological parameters were tested and brought together in a practice test. These sensors served as the database for an expert system for the health monitoring of sows and her piglets. Background of this work is the...

Collaborative project: Cost-effective, autonomous platform for mechanical weed control of sensible crops planted at variable intervals in tree nurseries - Subproject 1 (Project)

In the AMU-Bot project, an automated, intelligent and economical solution for weed control in nursery crops was developed to interrupt the competition for nutrients between weeds and crops, especially in young growth stages. Building on the results of the "AgriApps" project, a robust and electrified mobile platform was developed that is capable of moving within planting rows in nursery crops....

Collaborative project: Establishment of a breeding program aimed on the selction of productive raspberry cultivars with improved resistance to fungal cane diseases – Subproject 1 (Project)

The intended project is aimed on the establishment of a breeding program to develop productive raspberry cultivars with improved resistance to fungal cane diseases for German fruit growers. There is no raspberry breeding in Germany at the moment. Preliminary research is needed in order to start a raspberry breeding program at the Julius Kühn-Institute in Dresden. The expected results will be used...
