Tasks

Scientific work on the "KarOLa" project: Potato breeding for stress tolerance and processing suitability for organic farming

• Tests for disease infestation, particularly late blight, with regard to traits relevant to organic farming;
• Conducting and evaluating molecular genetic analyses;
• Statistical evaluation and analysis of existing and collected data;
• Investigating the genetic background of resistance in order to sustainably conserve resources and thus the environment through plant breeding.
