Phytoprotection Services

SHARE

Evaluate the protection efficiency of your product. Plant protection and cropping systems bring together a multi-disciplinary field of expertise and relies on the participation  of  all of the R&D Centre. Our phytoprotection service provides an evaluation of plant protection products and characterises the effect of both  bio-control and conventional products: efficiency of protection and mode of action. Our specificities, Our expertise in phyto-protection

  • A range of targeted pathosystems which respond to your current major problems
  • Efficient tests on aphids (for other insects, please consult us)
  • A molecular screening platform ( SDP) : poster method qPFD platform with a kit of 28 plant defence markers for four crops
  • A new laboratory equipped with all the latest technologies in the heart of the `Campus du végétal`
  • Directly linked to leading research teams of the `Campus du végétal` (arboriculture, ornamental, SDP) and the national field networks  (member of the following networks: RMT Elicitra, RMT VegDiag, IBMA)

We can characterise in-lab the effects of plant protection products via tests on the effectiveness of the protection and the efficiency of the induction of the plant`s natural defence mechanisms

Efficiency of the protection on  targeted crops and pathogens
  • Apple /scab, fire blight and aphids
  • Vines / downy mildew
  • Tomato/ grey mould
  • Lettuce/aphids and mildew
  • Cucumber / powdery mildew
  • Rose / black spot and powdery mildew
  • Potato/ late blight
  • Wheat / septoria

We also offer phyto-toxicity tests on all crops.

Study of mode of action in vitro and on plants
  • In vitro studies on the biocide effect and the dose effect of a product.
  • Tests on plants will help you to identify the optimal position of the product: determination of the curative, preventive and systemic effect, dose, organ

Efficiency of the induction of the plant`s defence mechanisms
  • Identification of induced defence genes/pathways with the help of  the molecular tool available for  apple, potato, grapevine and tomato
  • Fast and reliable screening on a laboratory scale of NDS (Natural Defence Stimulators)
    • Identification of the direct effect or potentiation of NDS
    • Identification of varieties most responsive to natural defence stimulators
