Epigenetic and molecular mechanisms underlying gene expression in porcine skeletal muscle and satellite cells
(2012-09-27)Epigenetic studies have been conducted in association with skeletal muscle only during the last years. We performed <em>in vivo</em> study in skeletal muscle and <em>in vitro</em> study in satellite cells with the aims to ... -
Bioactive Compounds in Underutilized Tropical Fruits from Latin America
(2012-10-10)A vast number of plant species originating from Latin America bear delicious fruits, which are hardly known beyond its regional borders. Many of these underutilized fruits may offer a great potential for an intensified ... -
Wirksamkeit der Unkrautbekämpfung mittels Laser in Abhängigkeit verschiedener biologischer und technisch-physikalischer Parameter
(2012-09-25)Seit einigen Jahren nimmt die Bedeutung des Präzisionspflanzenschutzes in der Landwirtschaft immer mehr zu. Ein wichtiges Ziel ist die Reduzierung der chemischen Pflanzenschutzmittel, besonders der Herbizide, im Ackerbau. ... -
Vermicomposting of Organic Solid Wastes as a Biological Treatment for Sanitation
(2012-09-11)More than 38 billion m<sup>3</sup> of organic solid wastes (OSW) are produced annually from human, livestock and crop activities worldwide. To achieve the Millennium Development Goal for sanitation (MDG7), several alternatives ... -
Hepatic and muscular transcriptomic responses of porcine progeny to gestational diets varying in protein content
(2012-10-12)Inadequate maternal protein supply during gestation represents an environmental factor that is known to affect physiological signaling pathways and impacts the phenotype of the progeny in animal models and in humans with ... -
Biological control of leaf pathogens of tomato plants by Bacillus subtilis (strain FZB24): antagonistic effects and induced plant resistance
(2012-09-03)<i>Bacillus subtilis</i> reisolated from the biological control agents FZB24<sup>®</sup> and Phytovit<sup>®</sup> has shown promising results against several pathogens causing important foliar tomato diseases (late blight, ... -
Short-term individual nutritional care as part of routine clinical setting improves outcome and quality of life in malnourished medical patients
(2012-11-12)Nutritional strategies to treat malnutrition are rare and lack practicability in the hospital setting. This study aims at providing nutritional risk patients with individual nutrition care in order to raise energy and ... -
Epistatic effects on carcass composition and meat quality in pigs
(2012-08-10)The analysis of epistasis is not yet a routine, but it has been shown by few studies in livestock animals that interaction effects contribute with considerable proportions to the phenotypic variance. Therefore the objective ... -
Effect of niacin on the efficiency of nitrogen utilisation in the rumen of dairy cows
(2012-08-14)The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of an oral niacin supplementation of 6 g per day to a diet deficient in ruminally degradable protein (RDP) on rumen metabolism, microbial protein synthesis, nitrogen ... -
Entwicklungsperspektiven metropolitaner Peripherien im Rahmen stadtregionaler Planungs- und Entwicklungsprozesse am Beispiel Nordrhein-Westfalen
(2012-08-31)Die zurückliegenden Dekaden haben sich durch eine enorme Zunahme der Entwicklungsdynamiken von gesellschaftlichen, ökonomischen und ökologischen und daraus hervorgehend räumlichen Entwicklungen charakterisiert. Ein prägnantes ... -
Role of termites for the distribution patterns of carbon and phosphorus fractions and the genesis of tropical soils, Brazil
(2012-07-27)Tropical soil fertility is limited by low phosphorus (P) availability, limited accumulation of organic matter and by advanced stages of pedogenesis. Termites are well-known soil-engineers, which accumulate clay, organic ... -
Wet Path Delay Corrections from Line-of-Sight Observations of Effelsberg’s Water Vapour Radiometer for Geodetic VLBI Sessions
(2012-08-01)Water vapour induced excess path lengths in electromagnetic waves have been one of the most unmanageable errors in space geodesy, such as GPS and VLBI. The difficulty mainly comes from the highly variable distribution of ... -
Konsistente Kombination von Schwerefeld, Altimetrie und hydrographischen Daten zur Modellierung der dynamischen Ozeantopographie
(2012-07-18)Die dynamische Ozeantopograpie als Differenz zwischen Meeresoberfläche und dem Geoid reflektiert charakteristische Merkmale der Ozeanzirkulation und stellt als gemessene Größe somit eine bedeutende Eingangsgröße in ... -
