SPP 1090 AG 1: Stabilization of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in mineral subsoils as indicated by spectroscopic properties and the Al saturation (Project)

Although large amounts of dissolved organic matter (DOM) are leached from the forest floor into mineral subsoils little is known about the contribution of (DOM) to the formation of stabilized organic matter in the subsoil. The objective of this project is an estimation of DOM stabilization in dependence on DOM properties. Incubation studies with DOM solutions and soil columns enriched with DOM...

Collaborative project: Reduction of the amount of plant protection products in pomiculture by adaption the densitiy of foliage wall – Subproject 1 (Project)

The objective of this endeavour was the development and testing of a usable technical solution that leads to reduced environmental pollution as a result of fewer plant protection products and which provides competitive advantages to the manufacturer. These competitive advantages resulted from the potential cost advantages to the user that can be achieved with this technology. Due to the lower...

Collaborative project: Evaluation of potato genetic resources by using innovative methods to analyse ingredients and quality traits of tubers – Subproject 1 (Project)

Evaluation of potato genetic resources is fundamental for its increasing utilization in plant breeding. Within the project, a variable set of more than 200 potato genotypes including genetic resources was screened with improved and innovative analysis methods for yield and quality determining parameters relevant for potato breeding, as well as for the molecular chemical diversity of organic...

Collaborative project: Development of high-throughput plant phenotyping technologies to screen agronomic and physiological traits in field based experimentation – Subproject 1 (Project)

The project aims to develop technologies that will enable the high-throughput precision phenotyping in field based experimentation. This novel concept should increase throughput, allow to record plant growth automatically, remove subjectivity from assay scoring and decrease laborious scoring tasks.The project includes the development of new, advanced sensors and spectral algorithms to evaluate...

Collabortative project: Integrated plant management by using of wireless sensor networks - area specific irrigation monitoring of specialised crops – Subproject 1 (Project)

Due to the climatic change many agriculturally used regions are faced with longer dry periods. The goal of the project is therefore the development of an optimized irrigation water management system for specialised crops by the example of viniculture. Backbone of this system is a wireless sensor network for the identification of area specific soil parameters. To this end test systems based on...

Collaborative project: Increasing the contents of positive and decreasing the contents of negative compounds in grape berries (Vitis vinifera) - Subproject 1 (Project)

Molecular markers proved to be an extremely valuable diagnostic tool to improve grapevine breeding efficiency. The project aimed at the development of markers for both positive and negative aroma compounds. Thus, candidate gene approaches and linkage analysis were performed. Analytical, sensory and olfactometry tests were used for phenotyping of the plant material. The comparison of aromatic...

Collaborative project: Further development of the steep slope harvester as a multifunctional system in plant protection and other applications – Subproject 1 (Project)

The main purpose of the project is the further development of the steep slope harvester to a carrier system for modern application devices for steep slopes. The steep slope harvester is then useful as an effective application system for plant protection that is able to spare expensive resources. With the use of application systems that decreases the losses, the steep slope harvester makes a...

Collaborative project: Non-destructive assessment of root formation capacity in cuttings of ornamental plants using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) – Subproject 1 (Project)

Root formation capacity of ornamental cuttings is strongly affected by nitrogen (N) and carbohydrate (CH) status. However, the lack of methods for a direct measurement of these internal quality parameters impedes a broad use of this knowledge within the young plant industry. Within the joint research a calibration model for non-destructive measurement of the N and CH status of cuttings by...
