Programma UE: AGRI GEN RES - Conservazione, caratterizzazione, raccolta e utilizzazione delle risorse genetiche in agricoltura

Area Tematica:

Tipo Progetto: N/A - Non applicabile

Descrizione:

The objectives of the action are: - germplasm conservation; Collection rationalisation; Characterisation at morphological, biochemical and molecular levels; - valorisation of the European Cynara genetic resources; - promote variety registration to protect their utilisations; - set methodologies (i.e. evaluation criteria, in-vitro conservation and propagation, biochemical analysis, protocols, etc.). All the project’s data will be collected in a shared database system. The CYNARES action is aimed at conserving, characterising, collecting and utilising the potential Cynara diversity, in agreement with the Convention of Biodiversity, the FAO's Global Plan of Action for the Conservation and Sustainable Utilisation of Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture, and the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources (ITPGR) for Food and Agriculture. Methodologies will be standardised to make possible the creation of a unique database that will give information not yet available for all the European germplasm. Biochemical evaluation will promote the artichoke utilisation stressing its nutraceutical properties. The Cynara DNA bank will be the first in the world and with the advances in genomics will be of potential use in gene discovery. Molecular characterisation will certificated the lines fingerprinting and will give information on germplasm relationships and assess Cynara variation in Europe giving the instrument to create a European Cynara core collection.
