Analyzing Gene Centres with the Help of the Checklist Method – the Case of Syria
(2016-06-07)
The present survey of species diversity of cultivated plants is the first for Syria. Some cultivated species will be added in the future, because due to the civil war in Syria, it was not possible to visit the country in the frame of the present work, as initially planned. Checklists proved to be a useful tool for overviewing the cultivated plants of selected areas and allow a characterization of the state of plant genetic resources of Syria.
Syria has experienced several civilizations. Man settled in this productive ...

Egyptian wheat
(2009-12-14)
Wheat as the major cereal crop in Egypt is the core of the government's food security policy. But there are rapid losses of the genetic resources of the country as a result of ongoing modernization and development. Thus we compiled the largest possible number of Egyptian accessions preserved in the world gene banks. In the present study we collected nearly 1000 Egyptian wheat accessions. A part from the Triticum species of the Egyptian flora four species have been found, which were
recorded for the first time T. ...

Organic potatoes for processing
(2008-03-10)
Drei Feldversuche auf zwei Standorten (DFH: 51°4, 9°4’, BEL: 52°2’, 8°08’) wurden in den Jahren 2002 bis 2004 durchgeführt, um den Einfluss der Vorfrucht, des Vorkeimens, der N- und K-Düngung und der Sorte auf Nährstoffverfügbarkeit, Gesamt- und sortierte Knollenerträge sowie die Qualität von Kartoffeln und deren Eignung für die industrielle Verarbeitung zu Pommes frites und Chips zu untersuchen. Bestimmt wurden die N- und K-Verfügbarkeit im Boden, die N- und K-Aufnahme von Kraut und Knollen, gesamte Frisch- und ...

Management approaches in organic potato and tomato production
(2009-10-08)
The presented thesis considered three different system approach topics to ensure yield and plant health in organically grown potatoes and tomatoes. The first topic describes interactions between late blight (Phytophthora infestans) incidence and soil nitrogen supply on yield in organic potato farming focussing in detail on the yield loss relationship of late blight based on results of several field trials. The interactive effects of soil N-supply, climatic conditions and late blight on the yield were studied in the ...

Root effects on the turnover of grain legume residues in soil
(2003-10-22)
Das Ziel dieser Arbeit war, die Einflüsse von Wurzeln und Rhizodeposition auf den Umsatz von Körnerleguminosenresiduen und damit verknüpfte mikrobielle Prozesse zu untersuchen. In einem integrierten Versuch wurden Ackerbohne (Vicia faba L.), Erbse (Pisum sativum L.) und Weiße Lupine (Lupinus albus L.) untersucht. Der Versuch bestand aus drei Teilen, zwei Gefäß-Experimenten und einem Inkubationsexperiment, in denen ausgehend von einem Gefäß-Experiment derselbe Boden und dasselbe Pflanzenmaterial verwendet wurden. In ...

Amount, composition and turnover of organic matter in topsoils and subsoils under mature beech forest
(2017-12-15)
Two-third of the terrestrial carbon (C) is stored in soils, and up to 63 % of the soil organic C (SOC) is stored in subsoils (i.e. below 30 cm soil depth). Forest soils account for nearly 70 % of the global SOC, demonstrating their great importance regarding the global carbon cycle. The higher average age of the OC stored in subsoil indicates that the subsoil OC is more stable against microbial decomposition. The capability of soil to stabilize OC is affected by substrate characteristics (e.g. size, distribution, ...

Effects of tillage intensity on soil C, N, and P pools with different stability
(2013-11-29)
Es ist bekannt, dass die Umsatzdynamik der organischen Substanz von der Bodenbearbeitungsintensität abhängt. Bis jetzt sind nur wenige Daten zum Einfluss der Bearbeitungsintensität und des Zwischenfruchtanbaus auf C-, N-, und P-Dynamik im Ober- (0-5 cm Tiefe) und Unterboden (5-25 cm Tiefe) von Lössböden verfügbar. Hauptziele dieser Arbeit waren die (i) Quantifizierung des Einflusses von verschiedenen langzeitig durchgeführten Bearbeitungssystemen auf labile, intermediäre, und passive C- und N-Pools; (ii) Quantifizierung ...

Effects of grassland renovation on carbon concentrations and aggregate distribution in temperate grassland soils
(2013-12-05)
The effects of continuous tillage on the distribution of soil organic matter (SOM) and aggregates have been well studied for arable soils. However, less is known about the effects of sporadic tillage on SOM and aggregate dynamics in grassland soils. The objectives of the present thesis were (I) to study the longer-term effects of sporadic tillage of grassland on organic carbon (Corg) stocks and the distribution of aggregates and SOM, (II) to investigate the combined effects of sporadic tillage and fertilization on ...

Effects of grassland management intensification on dynamics of soil organic carbon and nitrogen in temperate grassland soils
(2018-05-09)
In Germany, about one third of the agricultural area is managed as permanent grassland. The predominant use of permanent grassland in Germany is mostly the production of fodder for meat or milk production, achieved by grazing or mowing. In addition, an increased demand for biomass to produce renewable energy has influenced grassland management in the last decade. Until 2013, a continuous decrease in grassland due to grassland conversion was recorded (from 2003 to 2013, by a total of about 5 %). The reduction in ...
