The BCCM consortium organizes its fourth hands-on training on preservation of micro-organisms (fungi, bacteria, cyanobacteria, microalgae), and a seminar on management of a culture collection. All industrials, scientists and students who aim to develop their skills in micro-organism handling and preservation are invited to join the training (14-18th of September 2020). http://bccm.belspo.be/trai

Drought is probably one of the biggest single threat from climate change which impacts are global, threatening particularly crop production. There is an urge in implementing sustainable agricultural practices in order to maintain/optimize crop production under drought conditions.

he general objective of this Ph.D. thesis is to quantify the direct and indirect impact of plant roots in soil electrical signature.

Root chicory (Cichorium intybus L. var sativum) is a biennial plant that stores inulin in its taproot during the first growing season and flowers after vernalization. This plant is cultivated as a source of inulin principally in Western Europe where increases in summer temperatures are expected as a consequence of climate changes.
