GRK 1070 SP 2.2: QTL analysis and optimization of breeding schemes for improved nitrogen-use efficiency of maize and wheat for sustainable cropping systems in the North China Plain (Project)

In China, agriculture needs to be intensified by increasing the productivity per unit land. However, the possibility to improve yield by further increasing the amounts of input is very limited due to already very high input amounts of fertilizers and irrigation water in the present cropping system. Hence, the development and characterization of improved varieties, especially with regard to traits...

Altered productivity and carbon sequestration of German forests in the face of climate change: (i) model development with data sets of soil inventory (BZE) and European Level I monitoring plots and (ii) model applications on an expanded dataset of the National Forest Inventory (BWI) - WP-KS-KW. Subproject 1 (Project)

The german national forest inventory (NFI) is an important instrument for forest policy of the federal and state governments. It is also increasingly used for practice-relevant research on tree species distribution and site productivity. However, the data on soil and climate at the NFI sites are covered only unsatisfactorily. The primary objective of this research project is therefore to combine...

Collaborative project: Breeding fast growing tree species of the genus Populus, Robinia and Salix for the production of renewable resources in the short rotation. Subproject 7: Early diagnosis of the eco-physiological performance of locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) local resources (Project)

Breeding of fast-growing varieties of the genus Populus, Robinia, and Salix for the production of renewable resources in short rotation coppice plantations. Main objectives are selection, genetic characterisation, testing of resistance, and hybridisation of poplars within the section Populus as well as the cultivation of plants for test plantations. Plus trees and stands of black locust will be...

Ecological and economic strategies for sustainable land management in the Russian steppes: A potential solution to climate change. Subproject 5: Institutions, innovation (Project)

Assessment of social and institutional drivers that led to the existing land use. Consequently, institutional and social factors hampering or facilitating change towards more sustainable land use practices including the uptake of key-technologies and the acceptance of policy measures to reduce soil degradation and desertification are investigated. A socio-geographic study with participation of...

Collaborative project: Development of a mobile and a portable underwater fish observatory (UFO) and construction of a UFO-network for monitoring fish stocks through coupling with a stationary UFO. Subproject 5 (Project)

The aim of the present project is to develop a trilateral test network consisting of a mobile and a portable underwater fish observatory (UFO), to link both with an existing pre-prototype UFO, to standardize the automatic pattern recognition for all three components and to optimize them so that species, size and weight classification can be achieved with a high statistical certainty (at least...

Collaborative project: An electrospun wound protection against Esca of grapevine - subproject 2 (Project)

Esca disease of grapevine: development and testing of a new category of plant protection, essentially free of fungicides and environmental friendly. The system shall be based on physically keeping away the pathogens from pruning wounds. The following goals are envisaged: i) Sealing of pruning wounds based on electron spun fibre fleece ii) Development and evaluation of a rapid assay for testing...

Collaborative project: Development of self-adapting LED-Traps for greenhouses - subproject 2 (Project)

Within a collaborative project between the company Neudorff, Emmerthal and Leibniz University Hannover a new and innovative light trapping system based on led-technologies for monitoring and controlling insects in greenhouses will be developed. The traps were electronically controlled and adjusted by particular insect patterns. The trap can be used in greenhouses in a mobile or stationary...
