Potential and limitations for the practical use of fluorescence sensors to detect physiological adaptations of crops
(2021-06-14)
The key objective of the present work was to evaluate the potential and limitations for the practical use of fluorescence sensors to detect physiological responses of crops to abiotic stresses, and the crop adaptations to ...
Armed Conflicts and Forced Displacements: Incentives and Consequences on Consumption and Social Preferences
(2021-04-06)
Several countries currently have ongoing armed conflicts or are in post-conflict. Relatedly, the number of refugees has almost doubled in the last decade from continued armed conflicts with an increasing influx to countries ...
Breeding progress for drought tolerance and nitrogen use efficiency in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
(2022-03-28)
Drought is the major abiotic stress factor limiting agricultural production in arid, semi-arid as well as in temperate regions around the world, whereas nitrogen (N) is one of the most important nutrients for crop production. ...
Genomic indicators for boar taint and fertility in Landrace and Large White populations
(2021-06-14)
Castration of male piglets in their first week of life is a commonly used but critically reflected method to avoid boar taint. Fattening of entire males represents a long-term sustainable alternative to castration but ......

Clinically-relevant antibiotic-resistant bacteria in process waters and wastewater from poultry and pig slaughterhouses and assessment of the bacterial dissemination into surface waters
(2021-01-21)
The objective of this thesis was the investigation of clinically-relevant antibiotic-resistant bacteria in process waters and wastewater from poultry and pig slaughterhouses and the assessment of the bacterial dissemination ......
Price dynamics and interaction of international cash crop and staple food markets
(2021-03-08)
For a number of net food importing developing countries (NFIDCs), abrupt changes in international staple food prices constitute an important source of macroeconomic instability. Theory suggests that in the face of instable ...
Development of a one-step three dimensional approach for the phase unwrapping process in a differential InSAR stack based on Small BAseline Subset (SBAS) interferograms
(2020-08-04)
Differential Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (D-InSAR) is a unique technique to detect and map deformations of the Earth's surface over large temporal and spatial scales. Processing a whole stack of multitemporal ...
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 ...
Roads, Geography, and Connectivity: Economic Impacts of Road Infrastructure in Georgia and Armenia
(2021-12-16)
Adequate road infrastructure is considered one of the major factors for economic development. The improvement of connectivity has been crucial for the development agenda. This has resulted in rapid increase in infrastructure ...
