Potato breeding for stress tolerance and processing suitability for organic farming (Project)
This project aims to develop basic material for breeding new varieties for organic farming. To safeguard good yields in organic production, new breeding clones carrying improved tolerance against biotic and abiotic stresses are essential. Testing and selection of breeding material for several years and in varying organic environments ensure the identification of clones adapted to organic...

Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum and Ralstonia syzygii: emerging threats in and outside Europe. Study on the epidemiology and the development and validation of detection and identification protocols (Project)
Findings of Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum in Europe show that species considered "tropical" can also become established and pose a threat to European agriculture. This project aims to create a platform for the exchange of knowledge and methods between scientists in order to jointly improve the identification and control of these species.

Pathotype-specific resistance and cultivar-specific virulence in the oilseed rape-clubroot pathosystem (Project)
Clubroot caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae is one of the most damaging diseases of oilseed rape and cultivation of genetically resistant cultivars is the most cost-effective method to control the disease. Earlier studies described the variation in virulence of P. brassicae isolates between and within field populations across Germany and showed a tendency to overcome different resistance sources....

Molecular basis of water soaking of strawberry (Project)
The project aims at the elucidation of the genetic mechanisms for the susceptibility of strawberries to rainwater-induced "water soaking". For this purpose, a segregating F1 population will be used for genetic and QTL mapping. Subsequently, candidate genes will be identified and functionally characterised.

Development of molecular markers for breeding of climate-adapted pome and stone fruit cultivars with late flowering time (Project)
The project is divided into two subprojects, each to be performed by a research scientist. In subproject 1, the genetic mechanisms of bud dormancy in apple will be further elucidated. In parallel, subproject 2 focuses on the genetic mechanisms of sweet and sour cherry. Both subprojects complement each other and at the same time, aim to highlight existing differences between the two plant...

Optimization of Lamiaceae, a group of medicinal and spice plants grown in Saxony-Anhalt, for the agronomic production of value-added plants for medicinal and nutritional purposes (Project)
A molecular breeding program will generate resilient plants with a high yield of essential oils for each of the Lamiaceae species. The breeding process will start with pre-selected material provided by the project partners. The genome and transcriptome of this pre-selected plant material will be sequenced and the resulting data will be associated with plant traits including essentail oil content...

Exploring the impact of bio-based fertilisers on soil and plants: potentials and risks (Project)
The use of bio-based recycled and farm fertilisers is a crucial building block towards a circular economy and makes it possible to recycle nutrients from residual materials and return them to the nutrient cycle. It is not only the nutrients that are relevant here, but also the organic matter, as it promotes soil life and supports the build-up of humus. Composts, slurry and fermentation residues...

Climate-resilient cultivation methods for risk optimization - with special consideration of the objectives of the arable farming strategy and its regional requirements (Project)
The aim of the KARO project is the regionally specific further development of existing production systems in plant cultivation in their regional context. The interaction of climatic, plant cultivation, phytosanitary and environmental risks is considered, which is subsumed in the business economic risk. The basis is an integrative model-based analysis and evaluation of the effects, trade-offs and...
