Proud!

C4C Yesterday in the Sole24ore newspaper an article on CREA Montanaso and our just started C4C project is mentioned

Another breeding season upcoming..spending efforts in developing new eggplant varieties with improved resilience to adverse conditions and with beatiful features. MONTANASO'S BEACH is now open!🥵💪🤩

Big efforts sometime yield great papers..congratulations to all,guys!!!

La erupciooooonnnnn. Que no es Hawai, ni Islandia, que es #LaPalma #geología 🌋😱😍

In this JXB invited review (academic.oup.com/jxb/advance-ar…) we highlighted how cultivated and wild genetic resources from genebanks and experimental populations, coupled with modern biotechnological tools, can lead a much-needed eggplant breeding revolution in a climate change scenario
