Development of environmentally friendly management methods for red spider mites in small-holder tomato production systems in Eastern and Southern Africa (Phase II) (Projekt)
Tomatoes are one of the most important vegetables in Eastern and Southern Africa whereas in smallholder production system yields are below the crop‘s potential due to low quality seeds, nonavailability of inputs, sub-optimal crop husbandry and a large number of pests and diseases. Red spider mites (Tetranychus evansi - RSM) are one of the most serious dry season pests in Zambia, Zimbabwe, Malawi,...

Development of design unbiased estimators for the restricted k-tree sampling techniques PCM (point-centered quarter method) and T-square sampling (Projekt)
k-tree sampling is frequently applied in ecological sampling; less so in forest inventory for the concern of unbiasedness. A design-unbiased estimator had recently been developed (Kleinn and Vilčko 2006), using inclusion zones that quantify the per-tree selection probability - but that are laborious to determine in the field (higher order Voronoi diagrams). That estimation approach shall be...

Development of a muscle specific ultrasound backscatter model to improve the non-invasive assessment of porcine meat quality (Projekt)
Numerous studies indicate relationships of muscle structure and composition with meat quality. Non destructive estimation of such parameters is still unsolved while ultrasound has already proven its potential for livestock applications. Previous investigations conducted by the applicants were promising but yet not satisfying in terms of prediction of meat quality parameters such as IMF, since the...

Developing strategies for application of resampling techniques in QTL mapping experiments with non-random populations (Projekt)
The dissection of complex traits into their underlying genetic components has become a major research area in plant breeding. As a consequence, significant progress has been made in the development of biometric methods for quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis. Experimental studies on detection, mapping and unbiased estimation of QTL effects are generally performed on randomly derived...

Developing high intensity fruit garden agroforestry systems for small-scale farmers of Eastern Africa (Projekt)
Goal: Micronutrient malnutrition concerns many food-insecure households in sub-Saharan Africa, resulting in anaemia, cretinism, and blindness on millions of people. In India, studies of the already existing intensive small-scale fruit garden agroforestry systems yielded an extended tree management knowledge and improved fruit tree varieties, among others. Making available well-adapted quality...
