Microarray analyses of Fusarium graminearum isolates adapted to azoles (Project)

Fusarium graminearum is a pathogenic ascomycete on cereals that causes yield losses and contaminations with mycotoxins. Its control mainly relies on several azole fungicides. In some field populations of the fungus quantitative resistance has been observed that may spread in the future increasing the difficulties to control this fungus. Adaptation of F. graminearum in vitro to tebuconazole...

Improving lamb meat and milk production for fat-tail sheep of the Middle East through breeding (Project)

Sheep production in the Middle East has originally been based on the local Awassi, a fattailed sheep with low performance but good adaptation to unfavourable environmental conditions. Increasing population density and scarcity of resources as well as changing market conditions have heightened the pressure for sheep production intensification, resulting in the development of improved sheep strains...

Role of auxin in tomato flower organs and fruit during development under high temperature conditions (Project)

Tomatoes are a major horticultural crop worldwide. When tomatoes are grown in protective environments (net- and greenhouses), especially in mediterranean climate in summer, the temperatures are so high that tomatoe flower development, fruit set and thus productivity are affected. Little is known about auxin transport and action within floral organs and during fruit development. This project will...

Identifying spatial and temporal drought stress variability using canopy temperature measurements and simulation modelling (Project)

The research project aims to use tractor based canopy temperature measurements in conjunction with micrometeorological measurements as an operational tool for characterising soil water characteristics site specifically in agricultural fields. This will be done using a simulation modelling and model inversion approach. A crop growth model shall then be used to calculate winter wheat yield...

High-Value Agricultural Markets and Contract Farming: Implications for Rural Development in Africa (Project)

High-value agricultural markets are gaining in importance internationally, including in developing countries. One typical feature of these markets is tighter vertical coordination along supply chains, often involving contract farming. This is likely to have far-reaching implications for rural development. Previous studies on the impacts of contract farming have concentrated primarily on the...
