Contained molecular farming - Controllable contained systems for high yield and consistency (CoMoFarm) (Project)
The CoMoFarm project will establish high-yielding production systems for pharmaceutical and industrial proteins based on plants, plant tissue and plant cells. The aim is to develop systems in which both the production host and the product itself show consistent yield and quality. The project will include a comparison of four alternative systems hydroponic plants, root cultures, moss and...

Industrial crops producing added value oils for novel chemicals (ICON) (Project)
Replacing fossil oil with renewable resources is perhaps the most urgent need and the most challenging task that human society faces today. Cracking fossil hydrocarbons and building the desired chemicals with advanced organic chemistry usually requires many times more energy than is contained in the final product. Thus, using plant material in the chemical industry does not only replace the...

Aquired environmental epigenetics advances: from arabidopsis to maize (AENEAS) (Project)
This proposal, entitled Acquired Environmental Epigenetics Advances: from Arabidopsis to maize (acronym: AENEAS), aims to assess the impact of environmental conditions on epigenetic states in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana and then transfer knowledge to maize (Zea mays): an important European crop. Advances in understanding the detailed mechanisms of epialleles formation in response to...

From capture based to self-sustained aquaculture and domestication of bluefin tuna, thunnus thynnus (SELFDOTT) (Project)
SELFDOTT proposes to implement knowledge already obtained on the artificial control of reproduction of the Atlantic bluefin tuna (BFT), Thunnus thynnus, to obtain viable eggs, and study embryonic and larval development for the production of fry (juveniles). At the same time, suitable and environmentally performing feeds for the growout of BFT will be developed, thus reducing or eliminating the...

Replacement of sulphur dioxide (SO2) in food keeping the same quality and shelf-life of the products (SO2SAY) (Project)
Up to today there are many foodstuffs (including beverages and wine) where sulphites are used as antioxidant and preservative agents. Examples for this foodstuff are dried fruits, some kinds of fruit juices, seafood and convenience food (especially containing potatoes). But these sulphites containing agents are in suspicion to cause some damage to the health and they were blamed for some allergy....

Indicators for biodiversity in organic and low-input farming systems (BIOBIO) (Project)
Organic and low-input farming systems provide habitat for wildlife. Prominent examples include the Black Vulture in the Spanish Dehesas or orchids in extensively managed mountain grassland. These farming systems also make use of old breeds, such as Welsh Black Cattle. Thus, they contribute significantly to the maintenance of biodiversity in Europe. The objective of the research project BioBio...

E-Bas - Electronic Consulting Assistant: Development and implementation of a management system for cereal production, Sub-project 2 (Project)
The new mobile and plot specific management system (e-BAs) to support the integrated crop production of winter wheat was developed. It is based on Decision Support Systems (DSS) developed by ZEPP and provides additionally recommendations and plant disease assessments on a regional level given by the public crop protection services of the federal states of Germany. The MS is based on a...

Bioactive compounds with health promoting potential of by-products of juice production and extraction of apple pectin: in vitro characterization of the action profile and enrichment value-adding components (Project)
Bei der Herstellung von Apfelsaft fällt Apfeltrester als Pressrückstand an, der bislang als Tierfutter oder zur Pektingewinnung eingesetzt wird. Das jährliche Aufkommen an Nasstrester aus der Apfelsaftproduktion in Deutschland wird auf 100.000 bis 300.000 t geschätzt. Einer wieteren Nutzung konnte der Trester bislang nicht zugeführt werden. Die Pressrückstände enthalten jedoch substanzielle...
