Project code: 2818801E19
Contract period: 11.10.2021 - 10.10.2024
Budget: 166,365 Euro
Purpose of research: Experimental development
Keywords: plant diseases (virusus, bacteria, fungi, phytoplasma), Start-up, vegetable production

The aim of MONITOR is to develop an on-site monitoring system for the control of seed-borne pathogens in vegetable production. In order to achieve this goal, the partners work out new methods in 6 work packages, which go beyond the state of the art: The consortium will develop an innovative assay for simultaneous DNA and RNA extraction from complex matrices and a new detection system. In addition, a test carrier will be developed which allows automated on-site analysis and which will be manufactured close to serial production by means of a mass production process. The MONITOR system has the following unique selling propositions: On-site analysis through automation; high sensitivity through nucleic acid analysis; easy handling; fast, safe and multiplexed analysis of viruses, bacteria and fungi. In summary, MONITOR pursues the goal to overcome the state of the art by innovative developments and to offer a new solution compared to the competition.
