Evogene, in partnership with Syngenta, intends to establish transformational and validation capabilities for biotechnology soybean. Activities will initially focus on soybean cyst nematode resistance.
The resulting candidate genes will then be provided to its partners for transformation and validation in the target crop (such as soybean and corn), allowing for further development.
