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 2028-12-31Quantitative 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...
Term: 2020-01-01 bis 2027-12-31Utilization and application of resistances of not adapted PGR for potato breeding by use of biotechnological methods.
Wild potato species are a valuable genetic resource for broadening the genetic diversity of cultivated potato. Therefore gene bank accessions of wild species with sexual incompatibility to cultivated potato which are not utilized in potato breeding...
