LEGumes for the Agriculture of TOmorrow (LEGATO)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2014, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2017,
The project has been conceived to promote the culture of grain legumes in Europe by identifying priority issues currently limiting grain legume cultivation and devising solutions in term of novel varietal development, culture practices, and food uses. LEGATO will develop tools and resources to enable state of the art breeding methodology and to exploit fully the breadth of genetic resources avail ...

Multipurpose hemp for industrial bioproducts and biomass (MULTIHEMP)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2012, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2017,
Hemp is a sustainable high yielding crop well adapted to most European conditions, with advantageous environmental and agronomical characteristics. Traditionally cultivated for the fibres, seeds and psychoactive substances, it is now considered an ideal crop to produce innovative biomaterials. Once a key industrial crop for fibre, hemp production declined in the last century and was displaced by c ...

Improving the resistance of legume crops to combined abiotic and biotic stress (ABSTRESS)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2016,
ABSTRESS applies combined, integrated systems biology and comparative genomics approaches to conduct a comprehensive study of the gene networks implicated in the interaction of drought stress and Fusarium infection in legumes. It uses Medicago truncatula as a model to rapidly identify characteristics for introgression into elite pea varieties and a field test of their performance against existing ...

Development of new agrotextiles from renewable resources and with a tailored biodegradability (BIOAGROTEX)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2008, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2012,
Increasing oil-prices, a growing threat of oil-shortages, Kyoto agreements on green house gases, environmental effects and climate changes, are all elements that contribute to the concern for the future of our oil based economy. Not only the search for biofuels but also for bio-based polymers and a more extensive use of the natural resources by upgrading the value of natural fibres and side produ ...
