Novel resources for resistance breeding against insect pests and heat stress under low cropping intensities in oilseed rape - Subprojetc B (Project)
In this project, we aim to identify and characterise biotic and abiotic resistances by applying and developing innovative phenotyping, genomic, metabolomic pathway analysis and bioinformatic approaches to systematically exploit existing and novel biodiversity for integrative rapeseed crop improvement. We will focus on insect pests which cause major damages to oilseed rape production in Germany:...

Abiotic stress tolerance of faba beans for improving yield stability - Subproject G (Project)
Faba bean is a legume producing seeds with high protein content and quality. At the same time, it is an important phytosanitary crop with positive impact on pollinators and soil fertility. It leaves a significant N surplus in the soil and therefore plays an important role in sustainable crop rotations, predominantly in organic agriculture. As such, it has a high potential to become „the soybean...

Potatoes for tomorrow: Improving genetic traits using potato genetic resources and new breeding techniques - Subproject C (Project)
In POMORROW, an interdisciplinary research approach is realized covering i) the assessment of genotypic and phenotypic diversity of genetic resources of potato, ii) the development of novel methods and genetic material for gene isolation and validation in potato, as well as (iii) breeding methodological considerations for improving the use of genetic resources in potato breeding.

NEM-EMERGE: An integrated set of novel approaches to counter the emergence and proliferation of invasive and virulent soil-borne nematodes (Project)
The EU joint project NEM-EMERGE is concerned with the spread of plant-damaging nematodes and its suppression in soils. Resistance in crops is endangered by further rising temperatures. In one of the work packages of the project, The Julius Kühn-Institute and the Thünen-Institute are working with field and vessel experiments to determine whether the soil microbiome can be influenced by biological...

Quinoa for future diversified agricultural systems (Project)
Orphan crops like quinoa have a great potential to increase the resilience of future agricultural systems and contribute to agrobiodiversity. Quinoa is of great interest for cultivation in Germany because of its highly nutritious grain and stress tolerance. A market and a value chain already exists for this crop in Germany, but production based on currently available varieties can not compete...

Pathotype-specific resistance and cultivar-specific virulence in the oilseed rape-clubroot interaction system (Project)
Clubroot, caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae, is a major crop rotation disease in agriculture. The cultivation of genetically resistant varieties is widely recognized as the most cost-effective management strategy. Previous studies have highlighted significant variation in virulence among P. brassicae isolates, both across and within field populations in Germany, underscoring a concerning trend...
