SFB 552: C6 - Diversity of endophytic fungi on cacao and impact on plant pathogenherbivorous insect interactions in relation to agroforestry diversity and management (Project)

This subproject aims at assessing the diversity of endophytic fungi in cacao trees in relation to agronomic practices. Our central hypotheses are that (i) the diversity of endophytic fungi is declining from agroforestry to monoculture plantations, that (ii) the incidence of herbivorous pests, ants, and plant pathogens is related to the diversity of fungal endophytes, that (iii) trees harbouring a...

Collaborative project: Industrial implementation of a production process for a sustainable macroalgae packaging concept for the food sector (MakPakScaleUp) - Subproject C (Project)

The aim of the project Mak-Pak Scale-Up is to optimize the production process for the industrial implementation of an innovative and sustainable, bio-degradable and preferably edible macroalgae-based packaging material for the food industry. The previous "Mak-Pak project (funding period 03/2018 to 02/2020) supported by the Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture led to the successful development...

Modeling of regional agricultural nitrogen fluxes as basis for the development and optimisation of agricultural policy measure to achieve climate protection goals - SP C (Project)

The overall project goal to establish a georeferenced database and the spatially differentiated, cross-media modelling of nitrogen fluxes as basis for the development and optimisation of policy measures to achieve climate protection goals in the field of agriculture. For the first time, region-specific farm and management structures and their influence on agricultural nitrogen emissions are to be...

Collaborative project: Chicken Synthetic Microbiota – Development of a microbial consortium for the early colonization of the chicken intestine in broiler production - subproject C (Project)

ChiSYN will develop a bacterial consortium for oral application to increase the resilience of chicken against bacterial infections which in turn will contribute to the reduction of antibiotic use in broiler production. Using bioinformatic tools, bacterial isolates from the chicken intestine with important metabolic functions and the genetic potential to exert beneficial effects on the immune...

Collaborative project: Knowledge-based measures for sustainable crop protection for long-term sustainment of Plasmopara viticola resistance in fungus-resistant grapevine cultivars - Subproject C (Project)

Fungus-resistant grapevine varieties, so-called PIWIs, are characterized by an increased resistance to pathogens such as Plasmopara viticola, the causative agent of downy mildew of grapevines. Without a minimum of plant protection, the resistance could be broken over time due to the adaptation ability of the pathogen to the host plant. To prevent a break in resistance, the development of adapted...

Collaborative project: Reduced emissions and increased animal welfare through clean, attractive floors in outdoor climate barns and outdoor runs in pig farming - subproject C (Project)

Improving animal welfare and reducing air emissions are important key elements for sustainable pig farming. Therefore the project aims to automate the frequent and regular cleaning of soiled surfaces in outdoor climate stalls and outdoor runs, which is necessary for reduction of emissions. With the use of newly developed, innovative cleaning robots and above-ground manure removal scraper systems,...
