Collaborative project: Coxiella burnetii - Secure Advanced Vaccine based on E-beam technology - Subproject B (Project)
Coxiellosis is a widespread problem in cattle production and is caused by the gram-negative bacterium Coxiella (C.) burnetii. Infected ruminants, which shed large amounts of C. burnetii during abortion or parturition, are considered the reservoir of the pathogen. It is also shed in milk, feces and urine. C. burnetii negatively affects the health of dairy cows and calves, resulting in animal...

Intergeneric introgression of chemical-ecologically mediated resistance to the pollen beetle Brassicogethes aeneus in oilseed rape (Project)
To secure the cultivation of rapeseed as an oil and protein crop in Germany, insect-resistant varieties must be developed. The increasing insecticide resistance of pests such as the oilseed rape beetle (RGK) and the decreasing number of active substances available against pests are forcing the development of new plant protection strategies such as the breeding of insect-resistant plants. In the...

Evaluation of new evidence on Non-Dietary Exposure to Plant Protection Products (Project)
The objective of the EFSA grant is the evaluation of new available evidence on non-dietary exposure to plant protection products (PPP) for the next update of the "Guidance on the assessment of exposure of operators, workers, residents and bystanders in risk assessment of plant protection products" (OPEX) and related Calculator (EFSA, 2022; https://doi.org/10.2903/j.efsa.2022.7032 ). It is...

Ecological, technological and capacity building strategies for a sustainable optimization of local maize-based food systems and climate-change resilient food production at the level of smallholder farmers in Kenya (Project)
Maize, a frequently consumed staple food in sub-Saharan Africa, is regularly and heavily contaminated with carcinogenic fungal mycotoxins such as aflatoxins, which repeatedly leads to fatal outbreaks of aflatoxicosis. In Kenya in particular, a high-risk model region for aflatoxin contamination in Africa, the situation has been worsening for some time due to climatic changes. Local maize-based...

Supporting UPtake Integrated Pest Management and lOw-Risk pesTicide Use (Project)
The main objective of this SUPPORT project is to develop a transition approach that is based on a thorough understanding of decision-making of farmers that are acting in a socio-ecosystem containing barriers and opportunities. SUPPORT proposes an approach that will be applied and tested, providing a thorough understanding of barriers and disincentives that hinder the uptake of integrated and...

Causes of current stolbur outbreaks - Epidemiology of Candidatus Phytoplasma solani in potato crops. (Project)
Recent outbreaks of potato stolbur are currently causing severe damage. They are associated either with the classical vector Hyalesthes obsoletus or, in other regions, with the increased incidence of the planthopper Pentastiridius leporinus, the vector of SBR disease of sugar beet, which in addition can also transmit the stolbur pathogen Candidatus Phytoplasma solani. The pathosystem of this...

Monitoring of small standing waters in Saxony - concept development and exemplary testing (Project)
The Saxon coalition agreement provides for an improvement in the ecological and chemical status of water bodies.Exceeding the environmental quality standards of the Surface Waters Ordinance for pesticides but also high levels of other trace substances often contribute to the fact that the good status/potential of water bodies is not achieved.Small standing waters < 1 ha in the fields and small...

Identification of UV filter enrichment areas in the Baltic Sea - Investigation of the transport processes and long-term sinks in water and sediment (Project)
The project aims to identify input pathways, distribution patterns and long-term sinks of UV filters in the Baltic Sea in water and sediment. The investigation of the dynamics of these substances also serves as an example for transport mechanisms of other anthropogenic substances such as pesticides when they enter the Baltic Sea. Furthermore, an analysis track for the build-up of sediments is to...
