Cel
The proposed research aims at the exploration and exploitation of genetic engineering technology to introduce new genes to achieve a fast genetic improvement of lettuce to :
- reduce the need for insecticides by genetic protection against aphids, miners and viruses;
- reduce the need for fungicides (used mainly to control Bremia) by broad and durable resistance against fungi;
- improved quality of lettuce by reduced nitrate content;
- reduce losses/improve quality by increased storability;
- investigate the safety aspects of the resulting 'novel food'.
