If you are interested in learning more about the BreedingValue project results, the project consortium invites you to its final Workshop “Advancing Berry Breeding: From Phenotyping to Genomic Innovation”.
During the workshop, results from the genotyping and phenotyping activities, as well as the consumer study perspective of the Horizon 2020 project BreedingValue, will be presented. A roundtable discussion encouraging reflection on how we can apply genomic tools in plant breeding, involving experts from the BreedingValue consortium as well as external experts, will be part of the workshop programme.
The workshop will take place on April 2-3, 2025 at the Marche Polytechnic University, Department of Agricultural, Food and Environmental Sciences, in Ancona (IT). It will be organised as a hybrid event (in-person and also accessible online).
Following this workshop, a demonstration visit to our project partner C.I.V. in Ferrara (IT) will be organised on April 4, 2025.
The demonstration visit will include:
- A visit to experimental fields with a description of the consortium's activities regarding the breeding activity and the strawberry certification process.
- A visit to the micropropagation laboratory and greenhouse at Vivaio Salvi in Lagosanto.
- A visit to the strawberry plant processing warehouse and preparation of potted plants at the Mazzoni Nursery in Tresigallo.
Registration is now open via this link. Please register before March 1, 2025.
