From microbial interactions to new-concept biopesticides and biofertilizers (INTERFUTURE)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2016, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2020,
The Directive 2009/128/EC sets rules in EU for the sustainable use of pesticides to reduce the risks and impacts of pesticide use on people's health and the environment. Among the listed actions there is the promotion of low pesticide-input management including non-chemical methods. In parallel several chemical active ingredients have been banned because of toxicity concerns. The result is that gr ...

Boosting plant-Endophyte STability, compatibility and Performance Across ScaleS (BestPass)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2015, Date de fin: 31 août 2019,
We need to increase the crop yield while reducing pesticide and use of inorganic fertiliser to meet the challenges of world population growth and climate change. Plant endophytic microorganisms can improve plant yield and enhance plant tolerance to abiotic stress as well as to pathogens under experimental conditions, but these effects are often not sufficiently stable for practical application. Ho ...

Empowering root-targeted strategies to minimize abiotic stress impacts on horticultural crops (ROOTOPOWER)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
ROOTOPOWER aims to develop a multidisciplinary suite of new tools targeted to the root system to enhance agronomic stability and sustainability of dicotyledonous crops under multiple and combined abiotic stresses: salinity, water stress, soil compaction and low fertilizer (N, P, K) input. Central to our approach is the use of tomato as a model species since it can be very easily grafted (usual com ...

A functional marker of commercial AMF isolates for sustainable agriculture (AGRO-AMF-AOX)
Date du début: 3 déc. 2010, Date de fin: 2 déc. 2014,
The proposal aims to strengthen a recent relationship between a SME from Germany and an established Marie Curie Chair from Portugal for lasting research collaboration. The company (INOQ) produces arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi (AMF) for application in sustainable agriculture. Commercial AMF application can significantly improve the stability of plant production. The importance of the symbiosis betwee ...
