Project name in Czech
Komplexní analýza onemocnění nádorovitosti kořenů a jeho možné biologické kontroly endofytickou houbou
Annotation in Czech
Onemocnění nádorovitosti kořenů je vážnou hrozbou pro zemědělství jak v Česku, tak v SRN, protože produkce řepky olejky v obou těchto zemích patří k nejvýznamnější v sektoru a zasahuje okolo desetiny z celkové obdělávané plochy. Cílem tohoto projektu je studovat roli rostlinného hormunu cytokininu v infekci Plasmodiophora brassicae a s využitím omických metod zhodnotit potenciál biologické ochrany pomocí Acremonium alternatum.

Project results evaluation
This project was being realized in the framework of the MOBILITY Activity that aims primarily on establishing and strenghtening ties with foreign research institutions. The control of particular outputs is not implemented by the evalution committee, but the correctness of allocated finances and the adequacy of their use are checked. The joined project has established a successful collaboration between research groups from MENDELU and TUD. In total, 10 and 7 research stays were supported for students and researchers, respectively. More than 250 samples were analyzed, and the results facilitated the completion of 2 master student theses and 2 published proceedings (category D). Further, 2 more publications summarizing interaction of A. alternatum, P. brassicae and Arabidopsis thaliana are expected to be completed within 2020. We have also identified several candidate proteins with a putative role in the P. brassicae infection, including HSP70-family protein.
