Plant genetic determinants controlling arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal growth through the plant cell wall (PlantMYCcellWall)

Start date: Jan 1, 2015, End date: Apr 22, 2018,

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis has great potential in agriculture for the development of food and energy crops better equipped to cope with extreme environmental conditions and with less fertilizers requirement. PlantMYCcellWall intends, through an interdisciplinary research project using a combination of genetics, molecular, cell biology and biochemical approaches, a better understanding o ...

GMP Two Year Safety Testing (G-TwYST)

Start date: Apr 21, 2014, End date: Apr 20, 2018,

G-TwYST will execute rat feeding trials with GM maize NK 603 based on OECD Test Guidelines and according to EFSA considerations. In the case of maize NK603 two 90-day and a combined 2-year chronic toxicity/carcinogenicity study will be performed. By combining the results of the G-TwYST project with those of the GRACE project (90-day and 1-year study with maize MON810) it will be possible for the ...

Revealing the hidden secrets of the MEP pathway to engineer new bio-resources for humanity (BIOHELP)

Start date: Sep 1, 2014, End date: Aug 31, 2017,

The recently-discovered methylerythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway produces isoprenoids in plant plastids and most microorganisms. Its absence in animals makes it a promising target for antibiotic development. In addition, many isoprenoids have important industrial applications (pharmaceuticals, nutriceuticals, fuels, rubbers, etc.). In order to fully exploit this pathway as a drug target and succes ...
