Adaptation strategies of beech forests to changing environmental conditions at different management intensities (Project)

...Consequently, forests can be weakened in their function as a CO2-sink and, given enough disturbances, even can turn into CO2-sources. ...The interactions of silvicultural management intensity and stress resistance will be factorially combined on different locations and analyzed with regard to soil-chemical and plant-physiological parameters. Additionally, the C-sink function of different forest usage forms will be quantified, modelled and assessed. ...This includes analyses of the beeches’ nutrient supply and soil water availability as well as their interactions with tree-physiological and soil processes (including C-, N- and P-storage in trees and soil), quantification of growth and regeneration ability of beeches depending on the stand structure, quantification of the greenhouse gas emissions (CO2, N2O) as well as volatile organic compounds (VOC), cost-benefit-analyses of different forest management forms (including assessment of C-storage), and finally the development of management models and –scenarios....

Predictive Breeding for Wine Quality (phase 2) (Project)

...To achieve thisgoal, we investigate different aspects: (1) the genetic quality potential (GQP; irrespective of theenvironment), (2) the metabolic quality potential (MQP; genotype environment interaction) of the primaryproduct (grape must), and (3) the quality of the final wine (analytical and sensory properties).The prediction of the genetic quality potential is examined on a training set of a segregating white wine F1population with standardized micro-vinification. ...

Strategies for the development of a breeding program under organic conditions for conventional pig breeding lines - Universität Göttingen (Project)

...In addition to other factors (e.g. husbandry techniques), the selected pig breeds and their breeding are a factor for higher yields. The aim of this project is therefore to develop an organic breeding program based on conventional pig breeds and to evaluate the effects of the husbandry environment (genotype x environment). This allows organic farms to use artificial insemination to select breeding boars whose offspring can achieve sufficient performances under more extensive husbandry conditions of organic pig production without compromising health and fitness. ...The evaluation of all data in the project should provide a statement on the significance of the genotype x environment effects, as well as the quantification of the breeding progress in the organic husbandry system when using specifically selected breeding animals. ...

Detection of added enzymes in food using mass spectrometry (Project)

...In Germany, food enzymes are used as food additives (lysozyme, E 1105, preservative / invertase, E 1103 humectant) or as processing aids. ...So far there is only one official method for such a detection (March 2021, § 64 LFGB): L06.00-70 - Detection of microbial transglutaminase from Streptomyces mobaraensis in meat and meat products using liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS ). The aim is to establish mass spectrometric methods analogous to L06.00-70 for the detection of lysozyme in cheese and beer, as well as invertase in marzipan. ...

Development of an Innovative Forecasting Model to Control Powdery Mildew (Podosphaera macularis) in Hops (Humulus lupulus) (Project)

...Infection happens almost exclusively at leaf pairs 2 to 4. Leaf pairs beyond level 4 are age resistant. ...As of mid-June, leaf pairs 2to 4 also become resistant and infections decrease significantly. Light intensity and temperature have great influence on infestation degree and incubation period, optimal are 12-23 °C. The temperature gradient between day and night has great influence on propagation of spores and the infection, ideally it comprises less than 5 °C. ...

Genomics-based exploitation of wheat genetic resources for plant breeding (Project)

...The overall goal of GeneBank2.0 is to leverage the wheat ex-situ collection hosted at the IPK Gatersleben to an actively deployed one in plant breeding by applying an integrated concept encompassing cutting-edge genomics, phenomics, biodiversity informatics, and precision (pre)breeding. ...The GBS profiles form the basis for four innovative and complementary strategies to identify valuable novel alleles or gametes: 1) The 22,000 accessions will be screened for resistance against three devastating wheat diseases, leaf and stripe rust as well as Fusarium head blight. ...The selected core set will be profiled using RenSeq in order to perform gene/allele mining for resistance through haplotype-based GWAS. 2) Novel trait discovery will be performed focusing on genetic variation important for hybrid wheat breeding redesigning the wheat flower implementing a genomics-based select-and-backcross method identify major genes promoting open pollination. 3) Combining physiology and population genomics in order to perform a targeted allele mining in genetic resources will identify for promising candidate genes contributing to nitrogen-use efficiency. 4) Opening the toolbox of genomic selection for pre-breeding by implementing a novel hybrid strategy will help identifying genetic resources with high breeding value for grain yield. ...
