Biocontrol 2016

The activity of biocontrol products depend on numerous biotic interactions implying secondary metabolisms. The Natural Products and Biocontrol Congress covers the whole research about the natural components involved in biocontrol processes.

The natural compounds involved in the interactions are either exogenous to the plant (active components of a vegetal extract, microbial metabolite, pheromons) or endogenous (produced by a plant in response of an elicitor). Therefore the Congress also covers the research in the vegetal response to elicitors and phytostimulus. It is open to scientists, technicians, industrials whose research are centred on biocontrol and natural products.
Several main events will take place during the Congress : plenary conferences, scientific presentation (oral or poster), BtoB rendez-vous, and discussions between participants.

From September 21st – September 23rd there will be technology and businessmeetings in France, concerning the following themes:

• Plant protection AND nutrition / Biopesticides
• Chemical characterisation
• Identification of biological targets
• Microbial metabolites
• Secodary metabolites as activity biomarkers
• Compounds of marine origin
• Decision support tools / precision agriculture
