The BIOEXPLOIT Consortium
The BIOEXPLOIT consortium is build from 43 organisations (i.e. academia, research institutes, plant breeding SME-s, and industry) located in 15 different countries. In total 68 principle investigators from these organisations participate in the project making it a unique assembly of diverse scientific specilisations, including plant pathology, epidemiology, population genetics, structural biology, molecular biology, molecular and classical plant breeding (see list below). The 68 research groups combined provide a work force of more than 300 individuals directly or indirectly involved in the project.
