Development of material and strategies for quality breeding in winter-emmer (Triticum diccoccum) for organic farming in Germany (Project)

...The main project objectives are to (1) describe the process quality of the new crop Emmer, (2) develop methods for their targeted improvement, (3) identify new varieties best adapted to organic farming conditions and (4) optimise breeding schemes developing new Emmer varieties for organic and extensive farming....

Research programme on ensuring coexistence between non-GM and GM agriculture as well as on biodiversity protection (Project)

...In 2005 preliminary investigations will be conducted on the experimental field plots. Main focus 2 concentrates on gene flow from GM maize to non-GM maize as well as the major factors affecting outcrossing rates. In 2005 large-scale experimental plots were established at six sites in North and East Germany; these sites were characterized by a donor maize plot (i.e. pollen source) and one or more recipient maize plots (i.e. pollen receptor). Two different experimental designs were realized: design 1 allowed the measurement of outcrossing levels at both different distances and different directions (upwind, downwind) from a central pollen source. ...

Method development for the identification of biomarkers for risk assessment of endocrine disruptors and phthalates (Project)

...Phthalates are used as stabilizers in all sorts of consumer goods (e.g. PVC). Dibutylphthalat (DBP), diethylhexylphthalat (DEHP), diisononylphthalat (DINP), diisodecylphthalat (DIDP), butylbenzylphthalat (BBP) und di-n-octylphthalat (DNOP) are used as stabilizers in plastics. ...Especially the developing child may be affected by substances with known effects on the endocrine system.EU guideline 2005/84/EG was introduced to reduce the exposure of children to endocrine disruptors and the contents of three phthalates were reduced to less than 0.1% (w/w) in toys and baby goods. DINP, DIDP and DNOP were banned from products, which could get into oral contact with babies.The term endocrine disruptor was introduced by Colborn et al. in 1993. ...

Development of a service for cryopreservation and cryobanking of bee semen (Project)

...The scientific and technical foundations for this technology were laid down in the project "Development of cryotechnics for the breeding of honeybees (LaBis)" (FKZ: 2813500508) in cooperation with the State Institute for Bee Science Hohen Neuendorf e.V. In this follow-up project, the process was advanced into a service, so that breeders have the option of cryopreserving bee semen at AMP-Lab GmbH. ...We check the cryoprotectant that is added to the dialysis medium for toxic by-products and remove it again before insemination to below 0.1%. Tested thermoboxes with barcode-labeled test tubes are made available to the breeders for sending in bee semen samples. ...

Influence of legumes and the dissipation of growth from greening blends to the nitrous oxide emission in winter (Project)

...Approximately 50% of the annual emissions of climate-relevant trace gas nitrous oxide (N2O) occur outside of the growing season. N2O emissions in winter are currently parameterized inadequately. Some studies demonstrated a positive correlation between the winter emissions and nitrate contents of the topsoil, some studies were able to demonstrate increased emissions with decreasing C / N ratio (and thus potential mineralization before winter) remaining on the field crop residues....

SFB 552: B1 - Energy and mass exchange between atmosphere and tropical ecosystems (Project)

...In B1 H2O-, CO2- and energy fluxes between the atmosphere and a natural rain forest and other land use types relevant in the rain forest margin zone will be quantified by field measurements and by numerical modelling, so that water availability, and CO2- fluxes, plant production and local climate influences can be assessed. ...
