Description of Industrial Research

Circular economy

Chemical, biological, and agronomical screening of substances/materials derived from other industrial processes

Fermentation

Study of development and optimization of bioprocess for living and extracted beneficial microorganism

Nutrient efficiency

Investigation on the efficiency of uptake and transport of macronutrients in selected crops

Soil Health

Screening for substances that can be applied to the soil, benefiting its biological, chemical, or physical structure to sustain plant productivity and promote plant health

Seed care

Chemical and biological characterization and efficacy testing of candidate active ingredients that improve crop seed emergence and early stages development

Biofertilizers

Study of microorganisms, their growth, typing, characterization, and application to improve the availability of nutrients in the soil, phyllosphere, endosphere, or rhizosphere

Biostimulant discovery

Activities aimed at improving capacity and capability expansion of the existing biostimulant discovery engine

Water use

Investigation on the efficiency of uptake and transport of water in selected crops subjected to different water regimes

Crop enhancement

Application of biotechnologies to enrich specific active ingredients that enhance a crop target of interest

Blue economy

Blueremediomics, Horizon Europe project aiming to investigate and screen marine microbiomics using a blue economy approach with the aim of delivering of products based on marine microbiome and circular economy

Plant health

Screening for substances that can enhance the natural processes of plants and/or increase tolerance against environmental stress

Multi-Omics

Apply different but integrated “omic” sciences, such as transcriptomics, phenomics, and metabolomics, for the discovery and Mode of Action characterization of biologicals
