Les laboratoires membres de SYMBIPHYT se positionnent sur 6 grands enjeux de cherche émergents :
Symbiosis et immunity
To understand the mechanisms of regulation of plant immunity by symbiosis to reduce the use of pesticides in agriculture.
Discover
Structuring of communities around symbioses
To select the genetic potential of partners involved in symbiotic and mutualist associations on their ability to interact effectively and adapt to the constraints of sustainable agro-ecosystems at different biological scales.
Discover
Impact of symbiosis on plant physiology and development
To understand how host plants regulate symbiotic activity (number of interactions and efficiency of nutritional exchanges) as well as the associated metabolic adaptations.
Discover
Evolutionary mechanisms of symbiotic interactions
To understand the evolutionary histories of leaf and root symbioses
Discover
Setting up symbiotic programs
To identify the molecular and cellular mechanisms that drive leaf or root symbioses at different biological scales (e.g. functional, evolutionary)
Discover
Impact of agricultural practices on symbioses
Manage the "soil" ecosystem in a sustainable manner, in particular in its symbiotic components (plant and microbial) in situations of water-mineral deficiencies. Under construction
