Collaborative project: Development of alternative control strategies and methods for the control of the cicada vector Pentastiridius leporinus of the sugar beet disease 'Syndrome Basses Richesses' to ensure yield stability - subproject C (Project)

The overall objective is to develop effective and sustainable SBR control strategies to ensure the competitiveness of German sugar beet cultivation and to preserve the agronomic advantages of the crop for securing the supply of food and feed. To this end, methods are to be developed and optimized from various sustainable and environmentally friendly areas of integrated crop protection, such as...

Collaborative project: SEEDSET: Development of stress tolerant barley lines with improved seed set and yield under terminal drough. Subproject 1. (Project)

Comprehensive screening of a DH population from a 'stay-green' and efficient 'remobilization' line will result in identifying improved barley lines with improved seed set and grain yield under drought stress. By implementing complementary genomic and genetic approaches we will identify genomic regions influencing improved seed set under drought andderive molecular markers. More specifically, the...

Collaborative project: Sustainable maintenance of grain maize production by improving classical resistance against the European corn borer – Subproject 1 (Project)

Aim of the project was to implement resistance against the European Corn Borer (ECB; Ostrinia nubilalis Hb.) in maize. ECB is a major pest in maize and is advantaged in development and spreading over Europe by global warming. In this context resistance breeding is one of the most important strategies to reduce yield loss by ECB. The project focused on two main objectives: The genetic...

Development of an analytical, imaging method for the determination and localisation of nanoparticles in a cell line (THP-1 cells) (Project)

According to the investigations of the Woodrow Wilson institute the number of nano-enabled consumer products increased nearly fivefold from 2006 to 2009. A similar trend was ob-served for food contact materials. It is anticipated that this general tendency is continued.In accordance with the report of the Woodrow Wilson institute from August 2009 especially silver nanoparticles are the most...

Collaborative project: Development of a new automatic measurement method for securing a complete bleeding of slaugther pigs – Subproject 1 (Project)

The aim of the project was the development of an automated control system to detect the bleeding rate in each individual pig using hollow knife technique . Within the project, an integrated control system based on infrared sensor technology has been developed. The system measures the heating of the surface of the individual blood-collecting-tank by inflowing blood. From gathered data the slope is...

Collaborative project: GPS- and server-based irrigation management for vegetable crops using climatic water balance (GS-Mobil) - subproject 1 (Project)

The aim of this project is to create a system for irrigation scheduling, which is based on the state-of-the-art of science and technology. This system focuses on determining the water demand of vegetable crops precisely, easily and in real time by combining climatic water balance with GPS and smartphone technique. The benefits are increased water use efficiency, a reduction of nitrate leaching...

RYE-BARLEY-DIVERSITY - Bridging genomics and genetic diversity: Association between gene polymorphism and trait variation in cereals (Part 1) (Project)

To gain a further understanding of genes involved in determining grain quality and flowering time in cereal species, we propose to undertake association studies between gene polymorphism and the variation of these traits. Five key candidate genes will be considered for each trait. Comparative sequencing will be achieved on a representative set of inbred lines of maize, sorghum, rice, wheat,...

EVA I FNR Biogas. Subproject 1: Design and optimisation of site-adapted cropping systems for energy crops in crop rotations (Project)

Various crop rotations of energy crops are tested in typical production areas of Germany. Old and new crop species like Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosum) and sorghum millet are integrated in these crop rotations which are partly characteristic for the regions. The objective of the project is to use a broad range of species for the supply of bioenergy via biogas and to develop...

Collaborative project: development of tools for the assurance of genetic quality of breeding programmes(QA @ Breeding) - Subproject 1 (Project)

A set of software tools were developed in the QS@Breedings project with the objective to enhance competetiveness of breeding programs. Based on inputs and outputs of routine genetic evaluations, a software pipeline (GePipe) is automatically parameterized and executed with a minimum of manual intervention. As outputs, GePipe delivers a complete analysis of the genetic evaluation: a population...
