Project code: keine Angabe
Contract period: 01.01.2007 - 30.06.2012
Purpose of research: Applied research

The objective of module V is to develop and apply new and appropriate molecular control tools by omics methods in the production of pork (both for the primary producers and the slaughterhouses). The research is carried out in three work packages: to develop biomarkers that can be used to improve pork quality in all segments of the pork production chains (WP V.1) to validate and further develop tools developed in WP. V.1 into ready–to-use tests, which can be directly applied by the industry in the pork production chains (WP V.2) to identify genes controlling adipose and muscle biology in relation to pork quality in order to improve our understanding of the regulation of pork quality in diverse production system (WP V.3)
