This project aims to develop a new type of fungicide using viral vectors to deliver small RNA molecules that enhance plant resistance to fungal pathogens. The focus is on creating a non-genetically modified solution to protect crops like tomatoes from diseases caused by Botrytis cinerea.
Plants are threatened by a plethora of pathogens, with fungi accounting for important crop and post-harvest losses worldwide.
Despite widespread spraying of fungicides, losses keep rising in the current warming world and the increasing use of chemical (and toxic) fungicides favours the emergence of resistant fungi strains.
Hence, there is an urgent need to develop a new generation of highly efficient and environmental-friendly fungicides for securing present and future food availability.Classic…
