Embryo4Grape
The project aims at merging the embryo-rescue technique with the ongoing VCR genetic vine improvement program.
dsRNA for the control of Esca-disease precursor fungi
The project aims at initiating a research and experimentation process on gene-silencing mechanisms in Esca-disease precursor fungi.
Thermotherapy
The project aims to assess the effects of the treatment – including protocols of different durations and temperatures – through biometric measurements and molecular analysis.
Mycorrhiza
With this project Vivai Cooperativi Rauscedo aim at assessing the effects of different mycorrhiza-based formulations on the performances of the vines.
Long-term monitoring of Grapevine Trunk Diseases in different conditions
The purpose of this research is to monitor the long term (15/20 years) development of diseases as for symptoms and associated microorganisms in different wine-growing areas and on different varieties.
NeosVine
The project involves research activities for the implementation of an innovative genome-editing approach with the use of CRISPR/Cas9.
Creation of new UNIUD-IGA-VCR Resistant Varieties and new UNIMI Rootstocks
In the forthcoming years Vivai Cooperativi Rauscedo is committed to developing new grape varieties that will be able to withstand the most common diseases.
