Project description

This project aims to deliver additional data to strengthen our patent application on the use of specific botanical extracts for activation of immunity against plant pathogens. The spectrum of activity will be evaluated and the product will be benchmarked in order to strengthen the business case. Also, negotiations with already interested industrial partners will be started for setting up license agreements.
