Investigate the diversity of woodiness patterns in tomato stems
As an important horticultural crop, tomato has been subjected to intense study on its commercial traits. However, its potential as a valuable resource for biobased material is not fully explored. In this project, we will focus o ...

Studying the genomic basis of breeding traits in industrial crops
The development of a bio-based economy requires the availability of crops and varieties that can supply biomass and bio-molecules in sufficient amounts and quality for economically-viable bio-based value chains. Non-food crops tha ...

Influence of abiotic stresses on miscanthus biomass quality for biofuel production
Biofuels, produced from plant biomass, are a promising and sustainable alternative to fossil fuels. The plant cell wall is the main component of all plant biomass and consists mainly of polymeric sugars. The production of 2nd gen ...

Field experiment to monitor phenotypic development of cabbage plants
Brassica oleracea displays enormous phenotypic variation, including leafy vegetables (cabbage, kale, Brussels sprouts), tuber crops (kohlrabi) and inflorescences (cauliflower, broccoli). Brassica genomes all have undergone a whole ...

Breeding faba bean for plant-based food applications: genetic architecture of off-flavours
Pulses, the dried edible seeds of certain legumes, are increasingly desired by companies as ingredients for plant-based meat/dairy alternatives. Among pulses, faba bean (Vicia Faba L.) is particularly appreciated for its high prot ...

Domestication of diploid potato (in close collaboration with Solynta)
Introduction Diploid hybrid potato breeding is a new paradigm. Already for many decades diploid potato germplasm has been generated, partially by producing di-haploids from tetraploid cultivars and partially by crosses with cro ...

Metabolic and molecular description of sugar pathway in post-harvested onions (Allium cepa L.)
Onion is one of the most valuable horticultural crops worldwide. Onion is a biennial species that forms a bulb during the first year, which serves as overwintering structure. The shoot apical meristem of the bulb remains dormant f ...

Study the genetic background of lignification in tomato stems
Lignin is an important secondary metabolite that is involved in plant development and growth. It is concentrated in the secondary cell wall and bestowed plants with physical strength and resistance to unfavorable environments. In  ...
