To get better quality tomatoes, with more flavor and more resistant against new viruses and emerging diseases. This is the objective of a European project that is led from Valencia, specifically from the Institute of Molecular and Cellular Biology of Plants (IBMCP), a joint center of the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV) and the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC). Called Harnesstom, it also aims to improve the resistance of this vegetable to new conditions arising from climate change.

The Harnesstom project, led by the IBMCP (UPV-CSIC), seeks to achieve higher quality tomatoes, with more flavor, and more resistant to new viruses and emerging diseases, as well as new conditions resulting from climate change. The coordinator of the project, Antonio Granell, tells us the keys to this project.

"Harnesstom" is the name of the European project led by Valencia that aims to get more quality shots, with more flavor and more resistant to climate change, our viruses and emerging diseases. A project, with a budget of 8.07 million euros, which is developed during the next four years from the Institute of Molecular and Cellular Biology of Plants, mixed center of the Polytechnic University of Valencia and CSIC, Consell Superior d'Investigacions Científiques.

 

 

 

 

 Cajamar interviews the coordinator of HARNESSTOM, Antnio Granell.

 Dr. Granell's research group at IBMCP (CSIC) collaborates with seed production companies and growers to develop tomato varieties that meet these challenges, both within the framework of research projects as HARNESSTOM and through collaboration contracts. He explains the genetic and genomic tools they use to achieve these objectives.

Grupo Cajamar is participating in the innovation project 'HARNESSTOM Harnessing the value of tomato genetic resources for the present and future', which began on October 1st and over the next four years aims to develop more resistant and better quality tomatoes, within the framework of the European Union's Horizon 2020 program, for which it has a budget of over 8 million euros.
