Environmental impact of ingredient changes in biopolymer-producing potatoes on the persistence of potential habitats in the hem
Project
Project code: 0315214A
Contract period: 01.07.2008
- 30.06.2011
Budget: 316,117 Euro
Purpose of research: Applied research
This project aims to investigate whether the cultivation of genetically modified potatoes that produce cyanophycin in their tubers alters the chemical characteristics of the soil and the composition of the micro-organism communities in the soil. Cyanophycin is a biopolymer that is used for various industrial applications.
