The lignification of strawberry fruit: molecular basis and effects on fruit quality (Project)
Lignin is the second most abundant polymer found in nature after cellulose. Among the many roles lignin plays in plant growth and development are those providing structural support for land plants. Until recently, only carbohydrate polymers such as pectin and cellulose and to a lesser extent proteins such as the expansins have been regarded as structure forming and stabilizing components in...

Phosphorus Recycling of Mixed Substances (Project)
PROMISE can be described as a continuative and subsidiary, yet discrete project of the approved flagship project BalticManure (Baltic forum for inventive technologies for sustainable manure management). The overall target of PROMS is to deliver strategies and tools for closing the phosphorous (P) cycles in the BSR and reducing significantly the discharge of P from agriculture into the Baltic Sea....

SPP 1315: The Detritusphere as Biogeochemical Interface for Bacterial and Fungal Degradation of MCPA and Phenanthrene (Project)
This project aims to clarify microbiological and physicochemical interactions during MCPA and phenanthrene degradation in the detritusphere. The detritusphere offers a unique opportunity to study metabolism and co-metabolism by a bacterial and fungal community along a gradient of decreasing availability of low molecular weight substances within a distance of 10 mm from the soil-litter interface....

SPP 1315: Microbial metabolism of model pesticides in the drilosphere and effect on N2 O production: Linking processes with populations (Project)
Hypotheses: 1. The drilosphere (i.e., burrow linings, gut content, and casts) harbours hitherto unknown, highly active prokaryotes that transform phenoxyacetic acid herbicides and their degradation products. 2. Phenoxyacetic acid herbicides and their degradation products inhibit N2 O production and growth of hitherto unknown nitrifiers and denitrifiers in the drilosphere. Aims: To assess the...

The capacity of agriculture to adjust to economic crisis and environmental shocks in Thailand and Vietnam (Project)
The Asian financial crisis of 1997 has raised new questions about the role of agriculture in emerging market economies. While in these countries subsistence farmers have been moving gradually towards commercialization rural farm households may still play an important safeguard role. The role of agriculture largely depends on the structure and organization of the agricultural systems. It needs to...

Surveys on the biodiversity of multifunctional land use systems, particularly for short rotation plantations, and the combination of growing fast growing tree species with crops in agroforestry systems, the reclamation of areas of lignite mining (Project)
Agriculture and forestry have varied opportunities to reduce and to fix global warming gases. In addition to cultivating crops also post-mining areas are used for the cultivation of short rotation forestry and agroforestry systems. First ecological field studies analyze and evaluate the quality of these habitats for ground dwelling arthropods in multifunctional land use systems.

FOR 948 P1: The role of hydrogen peroxide as signalling molecule in leaf senescence and its impact on senescence-induced nitrogen mobilisation (Project)
Nitrogen mobilization is one of the main metabolic processes during leaf senescence; however, the rate-limiting steps and the molecular mechanisms of the regulation of this process are still unclear. Therefore, we will focus on the understanding of the regulatory mechanisms of leaf senescence which finally contribute to nitrogen mobilization processes. In the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana we...

In-Soil Site-Specific Measuring of Sugar Beet Yield Using UWB Radar Sensor System (Project)
Yield mapping is a basic entity of the Precision Farming concept and provides crucial information about the success of cultivation. Several approaches to site-specific yield recording during the sugar beet harvest are known. Most of them are based on the weighing of sugar beets together with soil tare. Another real-time yield mapping approach with the option of plant population counting is based...
