After the destruction by unknown vandals of the NGT-1 grape experimental field of colleagues from Uni Verona, we will meet in Florence to discuss present and future of our researches. In Italian, it will be possibile to follow online upon registration.

I want this: Genome-edited Chardonnay grapes resistant or tolerant to mildew & powdery mildew!
Did you know that grapes are grown on only ~5% of European agricultural land, but account for ~2/3 of all fungicide sprayed in Europe?
