Through integrated and participatory approaches, DINAAMICC aims to reduce the vulnerability of family farms in the central highlands of Madagascar to climatic and environmental changes by improving and promoting agro-ecological solutions that contribute to their resilience and sustainability within their environment.

Diversity of varieties and farming systems as an asset of Mediterranean oleiculture in a global change setting

The NitroSorg project aims to develop high-throughput characterization tools for the quality of sorghum grain, in particular the content and digestibility of proteins. The project will allow an assessment of the current variety supply and the development of selection tools. In addition, in vitro and in vivo digestion test for poultry feeding will improve our understanding of the mechanisms of sorghum protein digestion.

Environmental signals such as winter and spring temperatures that control dormancy and the growth / flowering cycles of fruit trees are altered by climate change, threatening crop production. However, our ability to produce new cultivars is limited by our lack of knowledge about the underlying mechanisms and their genetic variation in collections of diversity. The FruitFlow project brings together an international consortium of five research centers and three companies to address these questions about two important fruit species: apple and peach.

The mechanisms of formation of aerenchyma are not known, in particular genes involved in its initiation. Their identification would make it possible to understand how this adaptive mechanism to submergence, present in many flowering plant species, is implemented. This would also open up the possibility of developing new submergence-tolerant cereal species. Rice is the perfect model to identify these genes and mechanisms that are naturally present in this species.

G2WAS. Drought tolerance in Vitis vinifera
The G2WAS project aims to study the responses of grapevine to water deficit on intra- and inter-annual scales, by integrating the dynamics of production, storage and utilization of carbon resources in both vegetative and reproductive systems. This study will be performed with a diversity panel designed to maximize the genetic diversity of the cultivated species (V. vinifera).

CHEW : Carbon-Hungry ricE and Wheat
The CHEW project aims to validate whether rice and wheat varieties with contrasting carbon source-to-sink ratios differ in their photosynthetic response, leaf sugar content and yield when subjected to elevated CO2 concentration. Confirmation of these hypotheses will pave the way for more efficient selection of CO2-responsive genotypes, either by conventional or molecular selection.
