FBN Institute of Genome Biology (Institution)
Objective of the Institute of Genome Biology is the identification of the genome contribution to trait variation and performance differences as well as the clarification of the genetic potential of individual farm animals. Therefore, we perform holistic analyses on different molecular layers between genotype and phenotype and integrate such 'omics'-data. We analyze structure, localization, and...

FBN Research Unit Reproductive Biology (Institution)
Regulatory processes of gamete maturation and early embryonic development are very important for fertility and reproduction of farm animals. Therefore, the biological processes of follicular development, oocyte maturation, fertilisation, early embryonic and fetal development are the main topics of interest. The research is carried out in cattle, pigs and horses. Laboratory rodents are used as...

Tropical Silviculture and Forest Ecology (Institution)
Non-sustainable use of tropical forests and forest conversion severely endanger the development of tropical countries. Land-use change is also one of the driving forces of global change. Thus, the main objective of our institute is to study and develop sustainable management systems for different forest and tree based land-use systems. Based on modern concepts of tree and forest ecology,...

FBN Research Unit Behavioural Physiology (Institution)
Three cornerstones of modern animal production are high productivity, disease resistance and quality animal housing. Within this context, research is increasingly showing that animal welfare, health and performance are tightly intertwined. However, there is currently little understanding of farm-animal emotions, especially with regard to ethological, psychological and physiological parameters,...

FBN Research Unit Muscle Biology & Growth (Institution)
The Muscle Biology and Growth Research Unit investigates basic principles of muscle growth and development and its impact on meat quality as the final product for human nutrition. The regulation of growth and metabolism is elucidated in addition to physiological and structural properties of skeletal muscle. The influences of endogenous and exogenous factors are also considered. Properties of...

FBN Research Unit - Nutritional Physiology (Institution)
Our research focuses on the following main topics: Nutritional programming, endocrine metabolic regulation, energy metabolism as well as protein metabolism and gastro-intestinal microbiology. We use a problem-oriented approach aimed at identifying regulatory mechanisms of nutrient intake, absorption, and flux as well as of transformation of nutrients in animal products. Particular consideration...
