Collaborative project: Strategies to avoid boar taint during fattening of entire male piglets - subproject 4 (Project)

Castration of piglets without anesthesia will be banned from 2019 on. Fattening of intact boars is discussed as an alternative. In this study it was investigated how the frequency of tainted carcasses can be reduced. One goal of the project was the establishment of genomic selection (gs) for boar taint. Therefore 775 performance tested intact boars (Pi x F1) as well as the purebred sires (Pi)...

Alteration of soil hydraulic properties at the soil-root interface - impact on soil water balance at the field scale (Project)

X-ray computer tomography enables a direct investigation of the soil-root interface in situ and thus a direct investigation of hydraulic parameters related to soil structure and pore size distribution. At the UFZ in Halle X-ray tomograph and a plant growth chamber are located next to each other which allows investigating the change of properties at the soil-root interface with time. Thus, this...
