Genetics of microspore embryogenesis in Intervarietal Substitution Lines of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.)
(2024-07-23)Microspore embryogenesis, a tissue culture-based propagation technology, is of great importance in rapeseed breeding to produce doubled haploids (DHs) in shortest time. Brassicas have become model plant species to study ... -
Breeding for Improved Flavour of Fresh Market Tomatoes: Breeders' Sensory Test and Molecular Markers
(2023-12-01)Until recently, flavour was not a primary breeding target in tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum L.). However, the poor flavour of tomatoes is a major cause of consumer complains. Flavour results from a complex interaction ... -
Improving pea production – Yield and nitrogen content of pea cultivars with different leaf types
(2022-10-27)Pea (Pisum sativum L., 2n = 14) is the most important cool season grain legume in Europe. Peas are mainly used as protein-rich feed for animals as an alternative to soybeans and faba beans. There is a special interest in ... -
Agronomic performance, nutritional yields and sensory properties of different tomato cultivars under organic low-input production
(2021-07-15)Sixty tomato cultivars from old cultivars released in the 1880s to the most recently developed cultivars were investigated in 2015 and a subset of 20 cultivars was selected for further evaluation in 2016. The cultivars ... -
Potassium nutrition on tomato (Solanum lycopersicon L.) has an impact on production, postharvest behavior, and fruit sensory profile
(2021-02-04)Tomato (Solanum lycopersicon L.) is the most important vegetable in the world consumption and production. The fruits significantly contribute to human health, as they are rich in vitamins, minerals, sugars and antioxidants. ... -
Characterization of novel sources of resistance to Phytophthora infestans (late blight) in organic fresh market tomato
(2019-10-21)Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) is the most widely grown vegetable food crop in the world. Late blight (LB) caused by Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) de Bary is a major cause of crop loss in tomato and potato around the ... -
Selektion von Stangenbohnensorten (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) für den Mischanbau mit Mais
(2018-08-15)The mixed cropping of maize and climbing beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is an interesting alternative to the pure cultivation of silage maize, as it potentially combines the high yield performance of maize with the ecological ... -
Europäisches Rassen-Monitoring und Pathogenesestudien zur Turcicum-Blattdürre (Exserohilum turcicum) an Mais (Zea mays L.)
(2018-05-28)In the last few years, the importance of Exserohilum turcicum, the causal agent of Northern Corn Leaf Blight (NCLB), has increased in European maize growing regions. The infestation of maize leafs by NCLB reduces the ... -
Site-specific adaptation by natural selection. A case study with lentil.
(2018-04-10)In the context of conservation and use of plant genetic resources, both storage in gene banks (ex situ) and safeguard on-farm (in situ) are important concepts. Increasingly attention focuses on the on-farm management of ... -
Maissorten für den ökologischen Landbau - Unkrauttolerante Maishybriden und blühbiologische Untersuchungen zur Entwicklung offen abblühender Maissorten
(2017-12-21)Contrary to its special suitability as a fodder plant in animal production as well as cash crop, maize has only been cultivated to a very limited extent in organic farming. One reason for the lower cultivation importance ... -
Development of Dual Use Maize Cultivars
(2017-07-24)Arable land resources for the production of food, feed and energy are limited. The increasing use of maize for bioenergy production is critically discussed in public. By developing dual use maize varieties combining the ... -
Phänotypisierung von Resistenzquellen und Charakterisierung von Resistenzfaktoren in Brassica-Arten gegenüber Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, dem Erreger der Weißstängeligkeit.
(2017-03-21)The present study was part of the international PLANT-KBBE III – joint research project MONARCH (White Mold Brassica napus Resistance Challenge, subproject B). The project assignment included the identification of new ... -
Studies on Resistance of Oilseed Rape (Brassica napus) to Verticillium longisporum – Interaction with Drought Stress, Role of Xylem Sap Modulations and Phenotyping Under Controlled and Field Conditions
(2016-11-25)Oilseed rape (Brassica napus) is one of the most important sources of vegetable oil in the world. Due to the growing demands in the biodiesel industry in particular, the global OSR production is gradually increasing since ... -
Entwicklung von Energiemaissorten für die Mischkultur mit Stangenbohnen
(2016-07-21)The increase of biogas usage for production of energy from renewable sources lead to a rapid increase in acreage of maize. This development could be slowed down for the time being by the introduction of the „Maisdeckel” ... -
Nitrogen Efficiency of Winter Oilseed Rape and its Prediction by Hyperspectral Canopy Reflectance and Electrical Capacitance
(2016-07-01)Oilseed rape is the third most important oil crop worldwide. Under many conditions it is characterised by relatively low nitrogen efficiency. In Germany a nitrogen supply of 240 kg N ha 1 is aimed at which derives from ... -
