Field and greenhouse inoculation experiments
What we do: We study the resistance of cereals (small grain cereals, maize) and oilseeds to fungal pathogens, including mycotoxin-producing fungi (Aspergillus, Fusarium) in field and greenhouse experiments.
Your advantage: Reliable variety/hybrid selection and selection decisions during the breeding process. As a result of the tests, more resistant cultivars and hybrids can be produced, thereby reducing mycotoxin risks, which ultimately means business advantage for our partners.
Testing innovative crop protection technologies
What we do: We test conventional and biological pesticides for their effectiveness in the laboratory, in greenhouse and in the field, primarily in small grain cereals and maize.
Your advantage: Proven effective crop protection solutions that reduce fungal damages and improve crop security.
Plant pathology diagnostic tests
What we do: With a high-quality research laboratory background, we identify, monitor and examine fungal pathogens that cause damages in field crops, vegetable and fruit production.
Your advantage: Fast and reliable diagnosis to identify harmful fungi, which supports targeted intervention and risk reduction.
Research on mycotoxin-producing fungal strains
What we do: Aspergillus, Fusarium, Alternaria and Penicillium - we study strains belonging to these fungal genera a special focus on predict the effects of climate change to these fungal populations.
Your advantage: Science-based forecasts and information to manage mycotoxin risks and develop a long-term cultivation strategy.
Participation in projects, international collaborations, educational activities
What we do: Our company participates in tenders, national and international professional forums and conferences, while taking an active role in education and the education of the next generation of professionals.
Your advantage: Establishment of new collaborations, expansion of the professional network. Direct access to up-to-date scientific and practical knowledge and an active research and development.
Science for healthy plants
ArtPlanta's mission is to promote sustainable crop production by increasing plant resistance and developing effective plant protection technologies. From laboratory diagnostic services to field R+D trials, we provide reliable scientific data that help our partners make safe and effective product development (breeding and plant protection) decisions. Our goal is to ensure that all our assignments create practical and economic value while supporting a safe and sustainable food chain.
