The Julius Kühn Institute in Braunschweig, Germany, is recruiting researchers for the new LeguMap project within an international Cropping Systems Research team. LeguMap investigates where and under which conditions major grain legumes—including field pea, faba bean, soybean and narrow-leafed lupin—can be grown successfully across Germany. The project will translate research findings into practical, publicly accessible decision-support maps supporting more diversified, climate-resilient and sust...

The University of Rostock’s Chair of Phytopathology and Sustainable Plant Protection is seeking a research associate in agroentomology to investigate how drought stress affects aphid behavior, population development and the spread of plant viruses. The project compares drought-resistant and drought-susceptible plant varieties. It examines how water stress changes aphid feeding behavior and host suitability, and how these changes may influence aphid migration and the epidemiology of persistent pl...
