Participative development of rural development. Everyday cultural negotiations of the EU LEADER program (Project)
...In this process, the everyday world becomes an object of regional planning in a twofold manner: 1) The participatory “community-led local development”-approach of LEADER aims to mobilize residents by requesting them to get involved with the drafting and implementation of regional development projects. 2) LEADER policy measures aim to change aspects of everyday life by trying to foster civic engagement, strengthen regional identity and to develop regional networks. From the perspective of Cultural Anthropology, the project analyzes how the LEADER development program is implemented by local actors and in which ways it influences the everyday life of the population in rural areas.The study works with two main hypotheses: 1) The effects and functional principles of LEADER can only be understood if the analysis of institutional frameworks and policy-discourses is supplemented by an analysis of the implementation process and the impacts on the everyday life of local populations. 2) The implementation of LEADER is shaped by processes of appropriation and translation of the development program in everyday culture, which can run counter to the goals of the program. ...

Concept for optimizing population management in the Rhineland German Coldblood (Project)
...Polysaccharide storage myopathy type 1 (PSSM1) is a genetic disease that can lead to impaired skeletal muscle metabolism in affected horses. The aim is to investigate the carrier frequency of the gene mutation causal for PSSM1 in the Rhenish-German Coldblood in Saxony, which is classified as endangered, and to analyze the effects on performance parameters and health of the horses. ...

Characterisation of food products and food colourants with glitter effect (Project)
...In contrast to a special root and herbal liqueur, which has been available for decades and contains very thin leaf gold particles, the "glitter effect" can also be achieved by adding carrier particles coated with titanium dioxide (E 171) and iron oxides (E 172). Depending on the layer thickness and "mixing ratio" of E 171 and E 172, a silver or golden glitter effect results. ...

A detailed climate change risk assessment for European agriculture and food security, in collaboration with international projects (Project)
...Crop-M investigates cropland models concerning soil-crop-atmosphere interactions to evaluate and compare model results for biogeochemical processes and environmental risk assessment. ZALF leads WP C1 creating a common protocol for model inter-comparisons, guidelines and minimum data requirement for model calibration and validation at different scales. ...

Expansion of the timber species spectrum in climate change: drought tolerance of secondary tree species and cultivation potentials in a drier climate (Project)
...Their performance will be compared to the well-studied, eco-nomically important and relatively drought-tolerant species sessile oak.The study is conducted in various broad-leaf mixed stands along a precipitation gradient from the southern part of Lower Saxony to Saxony-Anhalt (750 – 450 mm yr-1) in the rain shadow of the Harz Mountains. The main research approaches include dendrochronological analyses (climate sensitivity of radial growth), wood anatomi-cal study (vessel dimensions) and ecophysiological measurements (hydraulic conductance, vulnerability to cavi-tation and leaf δ13C signature) which are combined with measures of tree vigour (long-term increment trends, fine root live/dead ratio) in the different species and stands. ...

Macrophage systems biology applied to disease control (MACROSYS ) (Project)
...The objective of the proposed project is to use a combined functional and classical genomics and system biology approaches (systems genetics) to investigate host-pathogen interactions and the host immune response to myco-bacterium infection. The outcomes will be 1) increased knowledge of macrophage function the application of this knowledge will be to develop tests to identify infected animals, and 2) the identification of genes that regulate the response of an individual to infection: information that could be applied in selective breeding programmes. ...
