Cultivating with resilience: how plants communicate stress

Explore how plants detect drought and salinity through root signalling and how the TOLERATE project harnesses microbiomes to build resilient agriculture.
TOLERATE Consortium Meets in Alexandroupolis, Greece

The TOLERATE consortium met in Alexandroupolis, Greece, for its 2026 General Assembly, bringing together partners from across Europe to review scientific progress, strengthen collaboration, and coordinate the next phase of research on drought resilience and sustainable biotechnology solutions.
Dissecting the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Explore how gene editing using CRISPR disabled multiple genes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, reducing biofilm formation and virulence, and how this approach links to TOLERATE to introduce ancient genes into modern bacteria.
Decoding Ancient DNA for Climate Resilience: Inside the TOLERATE Project

Discover how ancient DNA from frozen Arctic soils reveals microbial adaptations to climate extremes and inspires innovative solutions in TOLERATE.
