Examples of topics for collaboration
- Identify the factors that determine germinative quality during seed development
- Control germinative quality during seed packaging after harvest and during seed storage
- Develop tools to characterize seed longevity and germinative quality for seed technology or pre-breeding
- Study the impact of biostimulants on seed ability to germinate and emerge under various environmental conditions (biotic and abiotic stresses)
- Study the role of nitrate transport, nitrate signalling and nitrogen metabolism in seedling establishment under abiotic and biotic stress conditions
- Solve the genetic determinism of physiologic traits associated to seedling establishment under disadvantageous conditions (cold, nitrogen…)
Strenghten your R&D by recruiting :
- a recent PhD graduate (financial support by CIR)
Also consider recruiting working students (in contract of professionalization or apprenticeship)
