Collaborative project: Development of an erysipelas vaccine for poultry – Subproject 2 (Project)

Erysipelas is a serious infectious diesease of poultry caused by the bacterium Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae. The lack of commercial vaccines and antimicrobial pharmaceuticals with acceptable withdrawal periods makes erysipelas hard to control, particularly in laying hens. Alternative laying hen management is preferred by the public, but poses a greater risk in terms of biosecurity. For this...

FOR 948 P2: Role of NAC transcription factors in plant senescence (Project)

Expression of several genes encoding transcription factors (TFs) of the so-called NAC family have been found to be induced during senescence of leaves in Arabidopsis thaliana and other plants, including crops. Up to date, however, the knowledge about the functional role of NAC TFs with respect to the control of senescence processes is limited. Here we propose to analyse the regulatory functions...

Collaborative project: Optimizing of spray boom dynamics - Subproject 2 (Project)

The aim of the project is to optimise techniques fort he application of plant protection products in order to obtain a reduction of chemicals. This shall be obtained by developing improved spray booms for field sprayers and the improvement of spray boom suspensions. This shall reduce unintended boom movements and hence improve the spray distribution quality. A specific test method shall be...

Collaborative project: Analytical Tools for the Experimental Investigation of Food. Subproject 2 (Project)

Product and process qualities of food can be strongly influenced by attributes such as the geographical origin, cultivation conditions and the biological identity (species, varieties) of the raw material. Therefore these parameters become increasingly relevant for the consumers and the food industry why this relationship is also demonstrated by the price. As a consequence, manipulations cannot be...

Collaborative project: Preparation of the commercialisation of call feeding for sows, Subproject 2 (Project)

Call feeding comprises an add-on device for the feeding of group housed gestating sows using electronic feeding stations. The device allows a minimisation of feeding associated fights. At the same time, the technique offers cognitive exercise to the animals. The call feeding technique is based on an automated operant conditioning that requires no human assistance. Thereby, the animals learn to...

Collaborative project: Automated animal welfare monitoring in poultry. Subproject 2 (Project)

The monitoring and evaluation of valid welfare indicators is a precondition for any animal welfare improvement. Welfare indicators may be recorded on farm or at the slaughterhouse in order to describe the situation in a retrospective or in a preventive way and to indicate optimization potential. The aim of this project is to realize standardized measurements of animal welfare indicators in...
