Driving Forces of Rural Poverty and Distributional Change in Sub-Saharian Africa: The Cases of Burkina Faso, Ghana and Uganda (Project)
The proposed research project aims at identifying the major driving forces of rural poverty and distributional change in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Specifically, the analysis will involve case studies for Burkina Faso, Ghana, and Uganda, where micro and local as well as macro determinants of household incomes will be considered. While each case study will reveal interesting results in its own...

Development of a muscle specific ultrasound backscatter model to improve the non-invasive assessment of porcine meat quality (Project)
Numerous studies indicate relationships of muscle structure and composition with meat quality. Non destructive estimation of such parameters is still unsolved while ultrasound has already proven its potential for livestock applications. Previous investigations conducted by the applicants were promising but yet not satisfying in terms of prediction of meat quality parameters such as IMF, since the...

Developing strategies for application of resampling techniques in QTL mapping experiments with non-random populations (Project)
The dissection of complex traits into their underlying genetic components has become a major research area in plant breeding. As a consequence, significant progress has been made in the development of biometric methods for quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis. Experimental studies on detection, mapping and unbiased estimation of QTL effects are generally performed on randomly derived...

Developing a ruminal physiologically based model for the evaluation of dietary structural effectiveness in high-yielding dairys cows (Project)
Evaluation of dietary structural effectiveness is an important aspect in dairy cow nutrition, because this affects ruminal digestive processes, nutrient utilisation and animal health, and hence dairy productivity. This aspect gains importance especially in high-yielding dairy cow feeding, because of a high dry matter intake acquired and increased susceptibility to metabolic diseases. Although...

Cloning and mapping of the Brassica napus orthologs of the AtPirin gene associated with seed germination and seedling vigour, and generation of molecular markers to break the linkage with yellow seed colour in oilseed rape (Project)
Yellow coloured seeds are of particular interest for oilseed rape (Brassica napus) breeding because of their association with a thinner seed coat resulting in reduced dietary fibre content. This considerably improves the feed and protein quality of rapeseed meal after oil extraction. However, the yellow-seeded phenotype is also associated with negative agronomic characters including a reduced...
