Rational design of plant systems for sustainable generation of value-added industrial products (SmartCell)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2009, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2013,
Plants sustainably produce low levels of secondary metabolites of high industrial value. However, they are often too complex to be economically manufactured by chemical synthesis. Advanced metabolic engineering and exploitation of plants as Green Factories has been prevented due to poorly understood metabolic pathways in plants and the regulation thereof. SmartCell brings together 14 leading Europ ...

Plant Terpenoids for Human Health: a chemical and genomic approach to identify and produce bioactive compounds (TERPMED)
Date du début: 1 juin 2009, Date de fin: 31 mai 2013,
"Plant secondary metabolites are an important source of therapeutic drugs or drug leads. The advent of genomic and metabolomic technologies has now made it possible to bring the field of plant natural products into the 21st century and replace serendipitous and haphazard finding by rational design and discovery. This proposal is devoted to plant terpenes, the largest and most diverse group of plan ...

Biological control of broomrapes (BIOBROOM)
Date du début: 15 oct. 2008, Date de fin: 14 oct. 2010,
"Parasitic weeds from the genus Orobanche considerably damage crop plants due to withdrawal of water, minerals and carbohydrates. The growth of the hosts is retarded and yield losses range from 5 to 100%. The proposed project is dealing with tritrophic aspects of the host-plant selection by the oligophagous fly Phytomyza orobanchia, a natural enemy of Orobanche species. The novel aspect and the ma ...
