Project description (English)

The project is aimed at developing the production and extraction of yeast-based preparations obtained from waste substrates of food industries and plant extracts produced from cell cultures. The yeast-based preparations and plant extracts will be used to combat downy mildew and gray mold in grapevine, diseases whose control, at present, requires repeated interventions with copper and/or synthetic chemical products.
