Quantification of value-added metabolites from wild and cultivated plants using liquid chromatography-based techniques
Analytical protocols for targeted quantification of selected value-added metabolites on basis of liquid chromatography will be developed within this project. These protocols will be applied to support breeding projects. Work of this project...
Term: 2023-12-01 bis 2028-12-31Determination of ploidy in Taraxacum
In Taraxacum, the ploidy level can increase spontaneously. Knowledge of the ploidy level is essential for successful cross-breeding. Therefore, in the case of Taraxacum acsessions and artificial hybrids, the ploidy level should be determined using...
Term: 2023-06-01 bis 2026-05-31Ultrastructural Analyses of asparagus virus 1 pathotypes isolated from Garden Asparagus Asparagus officinalis L.
The ultrastructure of AV-1 pathotypes (PI-III in infected asparagus has been revealed and has been compared with the one in indicator plants using negative staining, immuno electron microscopy and embedding of infected tissues for ultrastructural...
Term: 2023-02-01 bis 2026-01-31Quantitative determination of plant substances aming to improve breeding and cultivation
Due to its non-invasive character and the variety of sample material that can be used, vibrational spectroscopy is particularly suitable for identifying plant constituents on the basis of characteristic absorptions in complex mixtures in order to...
