Development of improved perennial non-food biomass and bioproduct crops for water stressed environments (WATBIO)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2012, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2017,
"The goal of WATBIO is to use the power of next generation sequencing to develop an accelerated route for producing new germplasm with enhanced drought tolerance whilst maintaining biomass productivity and quality in water scarce, marginal environments unsuitable for food crops.This will be achieved for three non-food crops (Populus, Miscanthus and Arundo), suitable for growth on water scarce, mar ...

Enhancing Poplar Traits for Energy Applications (ENERGYPOPLAR)
Date du début: 1 mars 2008, Date de fin: 31 août 2012,
"Green plants application is being promoted through different European directives, which aim to achieve 5.75% of liquid fuel supply by 2010 and 20% by 2020. Liquid fuels derived from cellulosic biomass offer an important alternative to conventional energy sources to reduce Europe’s dependence on fossil fuels. Trees are attractive dedicated energy crops because they display a wide range of growth h ...
