About
The Plant Biotechnology Research Group at the Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena (UPCT, Spain) is looking for partners for the Horizon Europe topic HORIZON-CL6-2027-02-FARM2FORK-05.
Our expertise includes:
• Plant biotechnology and plant physiology
• In vitro culture and plant tissue culture
• Biostimulants and seed priming approaches
• Abiotic stress tolerance, including salinity and heavy metal stress
• Secondary metabolites and antioxidant compounds
• Medicinal and aromatic plants
We can contribute to the evaluation of crop performance, physiological and biochemical responses, and innovative strategies to improve crop resilience and sustainability.
We are interested in joining multinational consortia involving universities, research centres, SMEs and industrial partners working on sustainable agriculture and climate-resilient cropping systems.
