ADAPT project (“Accelerated Development of multiple-stress tolerAnt PoTato”)
Project duration: 2020 - 2024
ADAPT project (“Accelerated Development of multiple-stress tolerAnt PoTato”) aims at identifying new breeding targets and matching potato varieties to specific challenging environmental growth conditions of the future. The ADAPT project is coordinated by Markus Teige at the Molecular Systems Biology lab at the Department of Functional and Evolutionary Ecology, Faculty of Life Sciences. It will take place over the next four years with a total budget of 5 million Euro from the EU Horizon 2020 program (No GA 2020 862-858).

BarleyMicroBreed
Project duration: 2022 - 2028
Horizon Europe project that aims to exploit the interactions between plants and soil micro-organisms to improve the resilience of agricultural crops to future climate change. The project is carried out in collaboration between Aarhus University, University of Copenhagen, BOKU (Austria), ICARDA (Lebanon), MetasysX (Germany), Photon Systems Instruments (Czech Republic) and Lantmannen (Sweden).
The project focuses on how to improve the resource efficiency and drought resistance of agricultural crops by optimising the interactions between plant roots and the existing microbiota - the communities of micro-organisms already present in the soil.
The BarleyMicroBreed project is funded under HORIZON-CL6-2021-BIODIV-01-13 - Breeding for resilience: focus on root-based traits call by and grant agreement number 101060057.

COST Action: Trace metal metabolism in plants
Project duration: 2020 - 2024
PlantMetals Project (Action number OC-2019-1-23903) objective is to determine transport pathways of metals from the soil to and through the plant; understand how plant metalloproteins are functioning; evaluate by which mechanisms metal deficiency and toxicity affect plants and how this is modulated in plant-microbe interactions. The PlantMetals project is funded by Horizon 2020 under grant agreement number.

“Towards improved crop resilience – discovering essential factors that control chloroplast development”.
Project duration: 2020 - 2024
The overall aim of the project is to understand how BE1 and related factors enable the development and homeostasis of chloroplasts, thereby identifying novel targets to increase the resilience of these essential organelles in crops.
RESPONSE (“RESPONSE - to society and policy needs through plant, food and energy sciences”) Doctoral Programme (Call 2) as laid out in the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement No 847585.

Project No. CZ.02.1.01/0.0/0.0/16_026/0008446:
Integrace signálu a epigenetické reprogramování pro produktivitu rostlin
Tento program je financován v rámci Operačního programu Výzkum, Vývoj a Vzdělávání a spolufinancován z ESIF prostřednictvím OP VVV.
Období řešení: 01.07.2018–31.12.2022.
Hlavním cílem projektu je identifikovat klíčové regulátory umožňující integraci signálních drah pro faktory vnějšího prostředí, hormony a faktory indukované stresem s epigenetickými regulacemi a stanovit jejich roli jako potenciálních cílů v produkci rostlin odolných vůči stresu.

Technologický Komplex "TECH-IN-PLAR"
Tento program je spolufinancován Evropskou unií.
Období řešení: 01.01.2019–30.6.2021.
Cílem projektu je vývoj inovativní klimatické komory s programovatelným robotickým manipulátorem a intelektuálním video monitorovacím systémem, TECH-IN-PLAR, pro in vitro & ex vitro pěstování rostlin. Podstatu navrhovaných technologických inovací komplexu TECH-IN-PLAR je přesná regulace požadovaných parametrů podmínek mikroklimatu (teplota, vlhkost, atd.), velká prostorová homogenita těchto parametrů a robotizace celého systému, která poskytne plně automatizovaný provoz linky. Tento unikátní hardware umožní spojení dvou nejnákladnějších fází mikropropagace rostlinného materiálu (proces zakořenění a adaptace) do jednostupňového procesu - ex vitro zakořenění.
