Ana I. Caño-Delgado has been awarded the highly prestigious ICREA Research Professorship to join the Center for Research in Agricultural Genomics (CRAG).
The project will investigate how plants respond to cold and how they can be better adapted to both mild winters and sudden freezes.
Representatives of the Parliament and the European Council have agreed on the regulation of plants obtained through NGTs
Researchers have identified a new genetic mechanism that allows plants to keep acclimation genes ready for a rapid response to stress, which could enhance plant resilience under adverse climatic conditions.
Researchers at CRAG have identified the FvHI gene as a key player in regulating the compounds responsible for the fresh aroma of strawberries, demonstrating that its activity modulates the balance between volatile molecules that determine the fruit’s fragrance.
CRAG researchers lead the new coordination of the Plant Section of the Catalan Society of Biology.
Researchers at CRAG have discovered that increasing glycosylated sterol levels in tomato improves cold tolerance by stabilizing cell membranes and activating hormonal signalling pathways.
Researchers at CRAG have developed the first high-throughput mutagenesis and mutation screening protocol tailored to Cannabis sativa, enabling the identification of novel gene variants
More than 180 people visited the CRAG during a festive and outreach-focused event aimed at showcasing research in plant and animal genomics
New research reveals that chloroplasts can directly modify nuclear chromatin, uncovering a novel epigenetic pathway for regulating photosynthesis in plants
