Modulation of trehalose biosynthetic gene expression to improve stress tolerance of tomato (Project)
In cooperation between the Leibniz Institute for Vegetable and Ornamental Plant Production (IGZ), Germany and the University of Tabriz, Iran, the research project aims to develop an extended understanding of the molecular basis of plant stress response and new approaches for improving the resistance of tomato plants to heat, dryness and salt related stress. Conventional methods of breeding...

Development and implementation of sustainable strategies to improve food-safety and retain nutritional values by reducing fungal infestation and aflatoxin contamination in the food-chain in Kenya as model region for Sub-Saharan Africa - subproject 1 (Project)
Maize and milk are food products which are highly accepted and commonly consumed by the African population. Unfortunately, both staples, livestock feed and milk, have been found to be frequently and heavily contaminated by fungal aflatoxins, and people are continuously exposed to levels which are far above the recommended levels. Nevertheless the consumption of these products is tending to...

Development and implementation of sustainable strategies ti improve food-safety and retain nutritional values by reducing fungal infestation and aflatoxin contamination in the food-chain in Kenya as model region for Sub-Saharan Africa - subproject 2 (Project)
Maize and milk are food products, which are highly accepted and commonly consumed by the African population. However, both staples, livestock feed and milk, are frequently and heavily contaminated with fungal aflatoxins. This results in a constant exposure of the population to toxin levels far above the recommended limits. Nevertheless, the consumption of these products is steadily increasing....

Shaping Food Environments in Transitioning Economies for sustainable and healthy diets (Project)
The ‘triple burden’ of malnutrition (undernutrition, micronutrient deficiencies and overnutrition) is now prevalent in many countries irrespective of wealth. Diets and dietary habits and the food value chains, which have globally become increasingly uniform and unhealthy, contribute significantly to the non-communicable disease (NCD) burden. Nutrition transition towards an increase in meat...

Integrated postharvest technologies for improved food and nutrition security in Sub-Saharan Africa: Case study Mango (Project)
The aim of this project, implemeted by the Leibniz Institute for Agricultural Engineering Potsdam-Bornim (Germany) and the Tshwane University of Technology (South Africa), is to provide cost-effective solutions to reduce the postharvest losses in fresh mango on the way from the grower to the market and the consumer. The use of environmentally friendly and energy-saving technologies along the...

Collaborative project: Sugar beet of the future: Model- and data-based yield scenarios for a climate-adapted selection in breeding - subproject B (Project)
The project is intended to investigate the impact on the yield of sugar beet which results from the current range of climate scenarios and in which way plant breeding can adapt. Thereby, an adapted choice of selection locations and/or the integration of indirect selection characteristics are hypothesized as reasonable adaptation strategies. These approaches may be used directly for...
