Insights into the salt stress adaptation mechanisms of bread wheat genotypes using a systemic approach
(2020-09-17)
Bread wheat is one of the most important crops for the human diet but the increasing soil salinization is causing yield reductions worldwide. The development of appropriate cultivars requires the elucidation of mechanisms ...
Spatio-temporal landscape transformations in Southern Chile and its implications on ecosystem services supply and beneficiaries
(2020-03-10)
Human-induced global change has driven drastic modifications of ecosystems that could lead to unexpected and unprecedented transformations in the present and future decades. Current systems modifications increased the need ...
Genetic analyses of piglet survival and postnatal growth
(2020-03-20)
Piglet survival determines the success of piglet production. Decreased piglet survivability raises animal welfare concerns and increasing litter sizes intensified this situation. In the recent work, the prospects to select ...
Influences on the activity and lying behavior of lactating dairy cows with particular attention to lameness
(2020-03-19)
Lameness, which is usually the cause of a painful claw disease, continues to be the third most common reason for culling on dairy-producing farms in Germany. Claw diseases are not only painful, affecting both health and ...
Optimization of point grids in regional satellite gravity analysis using a Bayesian approach
(2020-03-25)
The subject of this thesis is the global and regional gravity field determination from GOCE data using the short arc approach. The focus is on the extension of the regional method regarding an adaption of the model resolution ...
Evaluating Novel Vector Control Strategies: Modeling the impact of gene editing for malaria elimination in the Democratic Republic of Congo
(2020-08-06)
The tremendous burden of malaria has led to renewed efforts focusing on malaria elimi-nation in the high burden countries. However, to achieve elimination, novel tools includ-ing driving-Y gene drive mosquitoes may be ...
Regulation of branched-chain amino acid metabolism in major metabolic tissues of dairy cows during late pregnancy and early lactation
(2020-04-01)
For dairy cows, the transition from late pregnancy to early lactation is characterized by dramatic changes in endocrine status, nutrient utilization as well as tissue metabolism. Specific metabolic processes, e.g., in ......
Der Übergang von der späten Trächtigkeit zur frühen Laktation ist bei Milchkühen mit drastischen Veränderungen des endokrinen Status, der Nährstoffverwertung sowie des Gewebestoffwechsels verbunden. Spezielle Stoffwechselprozesse, ......
