Bundessortenamt: Home

UPOV shared the latest updates in its Newsletter.

Grain yield and NUE increased over time while nitrogen yield did not drop significantly despite reduced nitrogen input. Selection for grain and nitrogen yield is equivalent to selection for NUE.

The Bundessortenamt contributed to a study by the Julius Kühn Institute and the University of Hohenheim that shows the positive impact of plant breeding on the carbon footprint of wheat and rye.
